Matthew and David,
I graduated from the University of Maryland program at College Park as a
Psychology student.
I did research with Ben Shneiderman and was part of the human-computer
interaction lab even though
I was not a computer science student.  The lab is composed of people
studying different fields.
I didn't take all of the heavy theory computer science courses.
Instead I took many of the courses related to Cognitive Science and
Statistical analysis.

I hope that gives you some more insights.
Feel free to contact me off-line if you like.
Yours,
John Chin
