I'd look at the Univ. of Okla. Right in the heart of severe storm
country! It's where the National Severe Storms Lab is located (in
Norman ,not at OU...yet). They have a world-recognized metorology
program (see http://weather.ou.edu/ ), plus an architecture-based
interior design degree program (see
http://www.ou.edu/architecture/advising.htm#ugrad ). The university is
building a new weather research center, which shoud be completed by the
time you get ready to attend. The new center will house th OU School
of Meteorology as well as the Natn'l Severe Storms Lab.
