In particular, we are revamping and improving our marketing strategies, drawing upon the extensive experience and talents of our Maharishi Foundation marketing experts who have increased TM instructions in the U.S. by 25-fold in the past eight years. We are launching exciting new academic programs and upgrading many facets of the University’s functioning. And most important right now, we are upgrading the physical campus to a whole new level of excellence and beauty. We have already made great strides in this area. In the last several months we have invested nearly $1 million in donor-supported upgrades—including to Hildenbrand Hall, our largest women’s residence hall, which houses over 100 students. (See photos.) Likewise, our largest building for classrooms and offices—Verrill Hall, at 10,000 sq. ft.—has been transformed to a new level of dignity and functionality. A brand-new Maharishi Vedic Observatory now graces the exterior entry to the Argiro Student Center. We are renovating the interior and exterior of historic Henn Mansion, and just last year we replaced both roofs on our Golden Domes. All this has been possible through the great generosity and selfless support of our precious donors. Right now, we are focused on a crucial remodeling our five high-rise residence halls, home to over 250 men students. Two of these buildings were significantly upgraded several years ago, but the other three are in rather urgent need of renovation. We already have most of the funds needed for this major project from within the University’s operating budget and from donor support, but at present we are still $127,000 short. Therefore, we are reaching out once again to our greatest supporters, such as yourself, to help us bridge this financial gap and complete this vitally important and timely undertaking. This renovation is especially timely because our new marketing campaigns are bearing fruit: there is an upsurge in student inquiries, applications and visits to campus in these last 1-2 months. Our dormitories must be dignified and attractive to inspire these visiting students and their parents. With your support, we can easily make MUM far more irresistible for these prospective students. I have been so inspired and impressed by our newly arrived students, whom I’ve been meeting in my new capacity as President-elect. They are so fresh and intelligent and excited about the new direction they have taken with MUM. They are truly the bright future of the world. (Note that nearly half of the 51 young Americans now heading to Bali for their TM Teacher Training Course are from MUM!) I see an incredibly bright future for MUM—Maharishi’s precious, flagship university. The momentum is building very quickly. With your generous support for our most vitally important initiatives, we can quickly create a campus that fully reflects the limitless possibilities of Consciousness-Based education.
