But I could be wrong.

So I *thought* this would be a good audience of people to confidentially tell me what they think is a good salary for them to be offered right after graduation.

In the DC area.
This may not be as good an audience as you think. Most of us don't live in the DC area and would be guessing. (And lots of us are "yesterday's kids," or even "last week's kids." )

And now that you've indicated that your question is geared specifically to what your office pays recent college grads, the first question I have is what kind of work is it? Journalism? Government? Teaching? Non-profit? Political? Law? Medical? Public Relations?

Expectations for what is a good salary are going to vary, perhaps a great deal, from occupation to occupation.
