I graduated from MIU (MUMS previous name) in '79 and only went back to Fairfield for courses like TTC in the mid 80's. So I only know about what is going on there now from people in this group and friends who have visited more recently. If you are a college age student looking for a university degree I would recommend getting a broader exposure to your options in life than MUM can offer. I had a great time there, but in retrospect, I know that my college education was very narrowly focused and it limited my life experiences that college can bring. College age is about broadening your horizons to find your happiest life, and MUM is all about one perspective on what the happiest life means. Of course if you are out of college and way into TM, then you'll probably love MUM and Fairfield sounds like a charming place with a spiritual bias if you are into that. But remember what Shakespere wrote: There are more things in heaven and earth Horatio than are dreampt of in Maharishi's philosophies.
