How to understand our expenses
Maintaining the Highest Quality Academic Instruction. About 25% of our budget funds all academic activities, including:
- Academic programs — We offer 3 Ph.D. programs, 5 master’s degree programs, and 9 bachelor’s degree programs. In addition to providing the highest level of traditional academic training, our programs actually increase students’ intelligence, creativity, self-development, moral development, field independence, orderly brain functioning, and health.
- Faculty — Our faculty are among the best teachers in the world, and their research on Consciousness-Based education and Consciousness-Based Health Care is gaining wide attention.
- Library — Our library is a recognized leader in on-line services.
- Campus computing network and computer labs — The University continues to upgrade its computer facilities.
- We have created exciting new academic programs and continue to develop our successful Computer Science Co-op program.
Faculty Publications and Presentations
Getting the Knowledge Out. The academic budget also supports the faculty’s successful work in popularizing Consciousness-Based education and health care. The faculty are very effective in publishing their work in journals and presenting it at professional conferences. The response from educators and scientists around the country has always been positive and is becoming more so.
Buildings and Grounds
Maintaining Our Physical Plant. We spend 11% of our annual operating budget on maintaining and cleaning our 1.2 million square feet of building space and our 272 acres
Food Service
Nourishing the Body. We spend 13% of our annual budget in the kitchen on food and paying the Food Service staff. Our Food Service does something almost unheard of among colleges and universities — we prepare almost all main dishes using fresh vegetables and fruits, and we bake most of our own breads and desserts. Our Food Service is almost completely organic.
