I think any university is able (or will eventually attain the capability) to do this if it hasn't already. Next-gen sequencing combined with microarrays can make it happen. The only real issue is the cost of doing the reads. There aren't too many universities dedicating a major amount of resources to sequencing genomes though (well, here in California at least), so kudos to you Washington University.
