Don't limit yourself to indiana! But I would look at some small LAC's. A lot of them have the quirky, oddball (even aspie) types.

Not a uni, but I hear good things about Reed College, located in Portland, Oregon. I plan trying to get into there.

Well, if you're a rich, druggie communist you'll probably enjoy it.

Edit: Also, college = uni in the US.

LAC=Liberal Arts College

The problem with some is that they are so small that they can basically become another version of high school, depending on the makeup of the student body.
