[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I'm not  sure how to say this more clearly - I am interested in LOCAL perspective from DIFFERENT regions.  As I thought I made clear, DCUM seems to provide the local perspective of this region.  The original inquiry was whether anyone knows of similar forums in other regions that are in areas (like Washington) where college grads are actually finding jobs.  I've read many posts here from people who say they've lived in different regions and I'd hope that such people may be aware of similar local forums.  I know where to find the national perspective, but that is NOT what I'm looking for.

BTW I apologize if any feel insulted by what I think is a pretty obvious observation that the comments in this forum reflect a regional bias that is quite different from the views in other regions.  As noted, the expression of regional bias is useful for understanding how people here think.[/quote]

Here's a tip:  if you don't want to insult people, don't use words like "dense" and "anal retentive".  I'm surprised we'd have to explain this to you.

I guess some of us are struggling with why you want this, and that's getting in the way of starting to answer your questions. It would be one thing, and much more comprehensible, if you told us that DC has his heart set on working in LA (for example) and so you need just an LA-based forum. But you want a bunch of forums. Is your DC really be planning to select one college from each of the Chicago, Boston and LA regions? Are you writing an article?  Sorry to pry, but if the request made more sense, maybe more people would start to answer it. [/quote]
