While doing some editing on Protective Coloration I realized that three of the characters there would be seniors in the year following the events in the story, and at least two of those (Carol for engineering and Amanda for psychology) are planning to head off to college, probably Kyle as well.
What college would they likely attend? They'd have options, but three of the other characters (Tyler, Naomi and Mindy) are a year behind them. I'm thinking they'd want to stay local, then, so they could be home each day.
I never nailed down exactly where they lived, but in my mind I was placing them around Issaquah, a little south and east of Seattle. So we know at least one of the schools that they might consider would be the University of Washington.
Hmmm... who else do we know who'll be going to the UW? There won't be a Community type arrangement, but a friendship between the characters in the Seattle area feels likely, and I've gotten requests to follow up on both Protective Coloration and Charley and Claire.
