Submission + - Creating a Computer Science Alumni Network?
BASICman writes: Next week I will be graduating from a small, public liberal arts college with my B.A. in Computer Science. Talking amongst the other CS majors, I have heard some common concerns about not knowing who the other students in the department are, not having a centralized place from where to organize or get involved in new (side) projects, and also some griping at the lack of active alumni connections from which to find internships or jobs.
I think that creating some sort of student-alumni network would go a long way to help with all three of these points. What are the thoughts of the Slashdot community on this idea? What are the legal implications of starting an organization like this and should I make it a non-profit? Has anyone here started a similar project or are a part of an active student-alumni group?
