| Where's everyone coming from?
I live in San Diego, so DC is pretty far away from me. I used to live on the east coast though, so I know I'll be able to deal with the comparative lack of sunshine.
For people that are coming from far away- do you plan on meeting up with friends that are somewhat close to DC? I'm going to have friends in Philly, New York and Boston, so I think we're going to meet up in NY occasionally. |

| no one is leaving the state? About 40% go out of state from my school. I know it isn't really going to be an issue though since you meet so many people in college. | |

| LA to DC? 2,869 miles. 4 hours by plane. 
I don't know about Boston or NY.. my guess would be 500-700 miles.. | |

| DC to Boston is about 400 miles. Boston is about 8-9 hours by car (or more, depending on traffic), NY is about 5 hours. | |

| I'm one of the hordes of people going to gtown who are from Jersey. Although, I gotta say, I'm from the REAL Jersey, i.e. Tony-Soprano-suburb-of-NYC North Jersey, not bumbling-redneck-let's-go-to-Wawa South Jersey. | |

| it's about 3 hours to New York actually by train, which I think is the best way to get there. Boston is pretty damn far which is why I if I decide to see my friends there we'll meet half way.
Is there any reason that there are so many people from Jersey at Gtown? It seems a bit random. | |
