Keeping old school work

Well, like the title says.

I graduated a month ago with a BSEE and I'm pretty sure I'm going to go for an MSEE and/or MBA. I can't decide what papers to keep and which to toss. Right now I'm thinking keep my notes (mostly in spiral bound notebooks) and toss out the loose papers (homework, tests, etc.) Then again, I'm not exactly sure how much of it I'll ever use again.

Opinions?
 
The time it would take to search unorganized notes and older reference material is simply a waste with today's instant information. Toss it. I never looked at any of mine and I kept most of it. It isn't like I could find any specific info in a timely fashion anyway.
 
I kept all of my work. Haven't looked at it once since college, but there's so much time and effort there, I can't just throw it away. It's either have reams and reams of paper to show for it, or 1 framed document. I chose volume! 🙂
 
I don't even save them for the next semester. I never go back and look at them. I feel no need to clutter up my house with boxes and boxes of pointless, useless paper.
 
Ok, you guys are right. Screw that. In the trash it goes. Now to get rid of the books I never want to see again.

EDIT: Who wanted them? I'd mail them all for a small fee.
 
I saved some of my "important" major classes but NEVER once looked back at them. I pitched them along with some books several years ago since they only take up space in the basement.
