Re: what colleges have good robotics majors
While at Carnegie Mellon 98-02 I'm not sure we had an undergraduate Robotics Major, but there were many robotics related classes that you could take. There were also many undergraduate robotics research opportunities and also opportunities to work at the NREC (National Robotics Engineering Consortium) as well as other robotics companies in the area. I would highly recommend Carnegie Mellon if you are seriously interested in a future in robotics.

I had a great experience there, and while not a robotics major of any sort worked within the field on many occasions.

That all being said, I'm sure there are many great programs at other schools as well. I only mention Carnegie Mellon because I have experience there.

Btw, please excuse me if I got the acronym for the Consortium wrong.
