For what it's worth....

I am currently pursuing an undergrad 'Integrated Studies' degree.  You submit a list of what you
think a degree should be (example: daycare), and if the dean approves it you'll get an 
Integrated Studies degree in daycare or whatever.  My own will be Integrated Studies in 
Computer-Integrated Multimedia.  Nebraska has some nice equipment, but it's spread all over
campus, so I have to take special-topics courses in various areas, ranging from the TV 
broadcasting department to the Architecture deparetment.  I wouldn't recommend Nebraska 
unless we get the big grant we're asking for to set up a Center for Multimedia Communication.
I graduate in mid-1992, so by then we may have it, but in the meantime I scrounge a lot for 
any equipment I can get a hold of.  If you can't get in to MIT, this might be a route for you.
Not necessarily at Nebraska, but anywhere the professors and administration will help you.
