What do you mean by "cool" - increasing the number of students in your
program? Improving course evaluations? New preps possibly?

Hi, All --
Next year I'm going to be running our little show here (they're going to
make me chair).
For the past several years our program has been languishing; it seems to
me that a good way to start the process of recovery from that would be
not to try to reclaim our former glory (pardon my hyperbole), but rather
move us, as they say, "forward."
To that end I'm trying to compile a list of cool undergraduate programs
in psych (I'm applying the CASE method to our departmental reform). I
was poking around APA and CUPP and other web sites, and finding some
ideas, but really, not that much.
Then, in what can only be described as a brilliant flash of genius
(hyperbole again; it was really more a Homer Simpson "D'oh!" moment), I
thought, why not ask TIPS?
So, at last, my question:
What are some cool psych programs that you all know of? (Feel free to
self nominate, of course.) We are a small, sort of poor program, but
have a highly motivated and dedicated faculty of three (including
myself).
Thanks for any ideas you can give us to help in this.
