	Cornell University, Ithaca, New York has what I consider to be a "good"
Computer Science program, in both BS and MS.  The Electrical Engineering
school also turns out some pretty good programmers... There are many courses
taught in "C" on unix systems, ranging from a Practicum in Operating Systems
to Computer Image Processing.  

	Their Career Center is also quite receptive to recruiting companies, and
provides an easy interface to the graduating students.  They can be reached 
at (607) 256-5006 from 9 to 5pm.
