What are the top colleges/universities for studying Astronomy?

I want to go into Astronomy in my college/university years, and I want to know which school in (or near) Michigan have good schools for studying in Astronomy.

Central Michigan University is pretty good. Also Michigan State. But my top choice would be University of Michigan – Ann Harbor, it is world-class.

Actually, it really doesn’t matter where you study for the first two years as an undergraduate, if it has a good physics department. You can always get your Masters somewhere else, when you know what part of astronomy is most interesting.
