Potsdam, NY, Apr 07, 2011 — From the big picture of "brain drain" to the view from one group of young professionals. Nextwave is a social organization that brings together people in their 20s and 30s in St. Lawrence County. They hold a meet-and-greet the first Friday of every month. They plan events like board game night, wine tastings, and even an outing for whitewater rafting.

David Sommerstein spoke with two of Nextwave's organizers, Alexandra Jacobs and Lori Shull, about "brain drain" and "brain gain". Nextwave's next meet-and-greet is Friday, May 6th at la Casbah restaurant in Potsdam.
