Michael, I am currently pursuing a Master's Degree in International
Development at Clark University in Worcester, MA.  One of my courses is in
Intro to GIS.  Clark has a strong raster-based GIS program.  You can email
them at mailto:idrisi@vax.clarku.edu.  Kelly Davis is the Marketing/Production
Coordinator.  Best of luck.
