I am putting together a needed resume and learning context at the same time.
What I want is or should be simple, but I am not familiar with which options to set.


I am using the following, because I don't want to use any margin for some forgotten reason, just text area.  I am currently using this: (abbreviated)


%
% relevant snippet
%
\definedescription[rsection][location=left,width=3.0cm,headstyle=\sc]


\rsection{Education} \startitemize[5,packed]  \item bozo the clown
  \item is here today.
  \stopitemize

\rsection{Work\\Experience} \startitemize[5,packed]
  \item  UCLA BoA
  \item LMU BSCS
  \stopitemize

...
%
% end snippet
%

The above is fine, except that I want the items to be level with the "resume section header".  As it is now the items come out below the resume section description, like this:

  EDUCATION

               * bozo the clown
               * is here today

  WORK
  EXPERIENCE
               * UCLA BoA
	       * LMU BSCS


---------------------------------------------
%    Whereas I want it to be like this:


  EDUCATION    * bozo the clown
               * is here today

  WORK         * UCLA BoA
  EXPERIENCE   * LMU BSCS

% above or below
 
  WORK         
  EXPERIENCE   * UCLA BoA
	       * LMU BSCS

% 
In other words I want the first item of an itemization to line up with the resume section description header's first or last line.   I am thinking it might be to set someing in the  "before", "after", or "command" or to set maybe one to /nop out whatever
 is there currently.  I don't know how to find out what commands these default to, if any, but even if I knew at this point, I would still be stuck.   Though I'd like to know about that to.

Any advice on this would be appreciated of how to get this desired format would be much appreciated.

Regards,
 hwitloc

Marco,
  thank you for kindly showing me how to do the resume section : itemize format that I needed in a very clear way.  The example you provided works very well.  

I appreciate your help.

Regards,
  hwitloc
