Some Universities offer an Integrated Studies program, which allows you 
to develop a customized degree (if the Dean approves it).  I just 
graduated from the University of Nebraska with an Integrated Studies 
degree in Multimedia Computing.  It was about half Computer Science; and 
half a mix of media-related topics such as Film Studies, audio, Video 
Production, acting, art, and some special topics degrees where I worked 
one-on-one with a professor on a multimedia presentation. 

I started several years ago, when mm wasn't so popular; but it was fun, 
and to my knowledge I'm the first person in the world with a degree in 
Multimedia Computing.  I'm job-hunting now, and the only hard part is 
that I want to stay in Nebraska or Colorado to stay close to family.  
If there's a center to mm, it's the Bay area.  I may yet wind up there.

You might want to check out San Francisco State, they are offering a 
couple of courses in mm.  If you don't like California, try asking 
the college of you choice about a specialized degree.  A few people 
will give you a funny look, but don't get discouraged until someone 
who knows for sure says 'no'.  Good luck, please let me know how it 
turns out.
