Goto a local shop. There are a few good ones that offer a good discount to STR members. Switchback and The Path sell road bikes and offer an STR discount.

I don't think you'll do better than that component-wise on a new bike. The two things I would be looking to upgrade first would be the brakes and then maybe the wheelset, but it looks like a good start.

Sheesh... give the guy a break. He's obviously an animal husbandry major.

+1000 on the CX bike, on or off road fun as hell, more relaxed geometry for commuting, probably will have braze ons for a rack for school stuff. Still light and responsive. Standard 700c wheels but you will have the clearance to run wide or narrow tires depending on what you will be riding the most or a combo tire. .02 from me.
