A lot of people have totems, whether it’s jewelry, or pictures or pieces of something special. While a bear might be a bit on the unusual side, as long as you aren’t in a professional environment, it shouldn’t be much of an issue. College is the time where you start to make the lines for yourself- where you will be yourself and where you will compromise. On a more practical level however, pinning the bear seems a bad move. It will get very dirty, the pins will likely eventually give way or tear the bear due to all the lugging around and such, and the more you carry it around with you, the higher likelihood of it getting lost. I’d really consider keeping the bear as a bedtime totem and carrying something smaller that you can fit into your wallet as a touchstone. And I still have my polar bear that I’ve had since I was 11- and he went to college with me every year. Krys- awesome answer J
