I think the bigger question is WHY?  If you are trying to allow web
traffic, just handle it at the application layer with a transparent http
proxy.  At that point, you can just allow any access to the domain in
question regardless of the IP.  If this is outside of ftp or http and
the protocol in question doesn't support domain names, things can get
more difficult, but you could still find a way to trap new outgoing DNS
requests and dynamically unblock anything returned for lcc.edu.
