Check around on campus for a possible RPG/Boardgaming club. I know there was a small club at Western Michigan (<50 members), a big club (100-150) that runs a yearly convention (small in the grand scheme of things) at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, and I believe an organization (don't know size) exists at the University of Illinois. Those are the only three universities I have any experience with, and they all had a club of some kind. Perhaps your college has one as well. Your local game store would know of their existance.

Being at a college town, I'm sure you'll get a lot of hits at Nearbygamers.com as well.

You're likely in fertile terroritory to jump into a gaming group within the next week. =) Good luck!

PS: I'm suddenly missing college. =(

A few questions:
Do you know people in your area who play?
If not, is there a local gaming store you could visit? There are usually postings for people looking to form groups, or the store owner may be able to put you in contact with someone.
Do you have the Player's Handbook for any of the editions?
Do you have a preference for an edition?
