Default Saving money during college?

I'm going to have about $10,000 by the time I leave college (and I currently have zero debt), and I don't want to have it idly sitting in a checking account. I'm looking for a simple way to earn interest / invest / etc. I'd like to do some day trading during the summer, but I don't feel like I have enough to make it worthwhile after all the trading fees. I've also looked at opening a regular savings account (Capital One?) but I'm hoping maybe there's some more options that I should be considering. Note that I'd like to have relatively easy access to it if I need it, since its pretty much all the money I've got :P
