An article from Yahoo Careers on the Top 10 Places to Launch your Career. Not gonna lie, I initially suspected I would be given a place with like physical destinations, but not necessarily companies. But this was a great little list. I could be biased because Teach for America is on here, but nonetheless.
Best Places to Launch a Career - Yahoo
1. Deloitte - Accounting
2. Ernst & Young - Accounting
3. PricewaterHouse Coopers - Accounting
4. KPMG - Accounting
5. US State Dept - Govt
6. Goldman Sachs - Investment Banking
7. Teach For America - Non-Profit
8. Target - Retail
9. JP Morgan - Investment Banking
10. IBM - Computing
Hmm, anyone catch the trend of the top 4....
Maybe should have looked into that Accounting Degree back in school.
A really interesting list, Target really caught me off-guard and seems to be the black sheep of the group.

What's a Ute?
Ok I've really got to find a better clip!
But you can get the idea from this My Cousin Vinny clip.
Now, due to the lengths the University of Utah has become in athletics, the Utes of Utah are now a widely known college powerhouse and recent BCS Busters.
For the technical definition:
University of Utah athletics teams are known as the "Utes" in honor of the American Indian tribe for which the state of Utah is named. The Utes have inhabited this area of the country for at least 1,000 years. There were originally 12 "Nuche", or "The People", bands throughout Utah and Colorado. The Utes were among the first American Indians to acquire the horse as a means of transportation, and in rock writing the Utes are depicted as horses.
After several armed conflicts with Mormon settlers in 1861, the Utes were relocated to the Uintah Basin in northeastern Utah. Today, tribal headquarters are in Fort Duchesne, Utah, and the Ute Tribe, with a membership of 3,300 and its own tribal government, remains a vibrant part of the state. The University of Utah, in cooperation with the Ute Tribal Business Committee, is proud to share in the tradition of the Ute tribe through the "Utes" nickname.
