accept the Wayne State University offer or hold out for more offers?

I have gotten an acceptance from Wayne State University for computer science, for Spring of 2013. I am interested in Artificial Intelligence and plan to pursue my graduate education in AI. I was wondering if I could get some comments on how the research at Wayne State is rated? I don't really care about the course as I know any university however good or bad will have decent courses and well read professors, I guess the two question I have is:

1> Has anyone had any experience with research at Wayne State University in AI or knows someone who has completed their MS in Computer Science from WSU, if so how was the experience? How is the research and funding situation? What are my prospects of getting into a top 10 Phd. program later after my masters at WSU. Would doing my masters from a school that is not top ranked affect my chances of getting into a good school even if I have a 4.0 and a couple of good publications in my field of research?

2> What are my job prospects if I would want to pursue working in the industry after completing graduate school? Does WSU have job fairs and if so when are they conducted? And which are the companies that generally attend in the Computer Science and Engineering job fairs ( I know this is a long list but just a few of the bigger names would do... I am just looking at these factors to weight my options and decide whether to hold out for acceptances from higher ranked schools or go with WSU).

Thanks for your feed back and my apologies for the long question.

loathe as I am to suggest double posting, you may want to put this in the CS thread. I've seen a lot of CS folks online since this was posted, but I'm thinking they aren't looking in this subforum.

Good luck!
