They do it because they want to shape your future spending habits by familiarizing you with their products or services. When I was in college (late 1970s), the most notorious ones were the beer companies sponsoring frat parties--even though most undergrads are underage! I haven't heard whether campuses still allow that kind of yuckiness.
I knew certain college students that did manage to find money for non-educational stuff such as cheap beer and occasional weekend trips to Mexico.
