since I graduated about a year and a half ago, I don't have a working *.edu address anymore, and apparently you need one to get on facebook...how do I get around this?

I can give you a temporary edu address, but you'll be stuck with a University that doesn't apply to you. :p

find someone that goes to the college you went to, that also doesnt have facebook...and use their email address.

That or call the school...as an alumni, you should be entitled to use their email?

Does your school offer an alumni address? Mine has one that just forwards onto whatever address I give them, worked for me.

Aren't you kind of old for facebook? You don't want to be the creepy 30 year old guy hanging out at apartment parties with a nervous grin on your face.

The point of facebook is to know the faces you see around campus. You aren't on campus anymore.

You don't need facebook.

Time to grow up and stop caring about socially internet-whoring yourself.

I see tons of people who've graduated and are on facebook in various city networks (For example, New York network). Not sure if they just moved their accounts over or used their alumni address.
