You should not feel bad for potentially accepting the college job, only to leave a couple weeks later to accept the advertising job. Companies have absolutely no loyalty to their employees. You can work somewhere for years and be laid off at a moments notice. The people you work with might feel bad, but the company wont. By the same token, you dont owe any of these companies anything.

Unless, you give them "your word" that you'll stay there for a certain amount of time, you should have no qualms about accepting the college job and leaving for something better.
BHA is rarely right about anything but he's right on this.
