More specifically, I'm from the MetroWest area.  A couple people on this list
are from the Boston are too: David Lapointe and Rick Ree.

I personally felt there was no need to leave the area to find a college.  What
brought you to Michigan?

Yeah.  Most of the job adds I see ask for someone with (1) a bioinformatics
degree (you can count the schools in the world offering such a degree on one
hand), (2) a comp sci degree, or (3) a biology degree.  Bioinformatics does
cross more than 2 fields, I'm afraid.
