I can't speak for other schools, but the University of Maryland is working hard to become a "startup school." A few examples:
At least five professors in our electrical engineering department have companies.
The business school has successful entrepreneurs that can meet with students (in any major) trying to start companies.
There's a whole institute at the university called MTECH which has successful entrepreneurs and investors who help startups get off the ground. They have office hours once a month so if you impress them they can help introduce you to the right people.
