Linked in?
Does anybody else have a linked in page? I am trying to expand my network and feel like I know a lot of you

I have a Linked In profile, it is very popular in my industry (web development) and has helped me to get work. I highly recommend setting up a profile and getting as many recommendations from supervisors and clients as possible. What happens is someone who is looking to fill a position may know one or more of your connections and can then "check you out". Also helpful to join industry groups and answer questions. I think in time the site will become better known outside the tech world.

 Excelsior has an official group: Groups: Sign in Excelsior College (formerly Regents College) | LinkedIn There's also an alumni group, which I think is unofficial (but has been around longer and has many more members): Groups: Sign in Excelsior College Alumni | LinkedIn

Just checked - COSC has a LinkedIn group as well.
If you belong to any professional associations, seek and ye shall probably find them on LI.
