compass symbol
Next to the battery icon on the top-right corner is a compass symbol (heading northwest), which I assume means that my GPS is on. How can I turn it off? Thanks.

Means Location Services are on AND an app is requesting a location fix. As Chris points out, there is an indication of the culprit in the path he provided. Can be a major battery drain if repeated too often, which some apps like Facebook, Twitter, etc., are prone to do. That can also be controlled in the settings.
You need to go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services and find out what app you have allowed to use location services and is running.
