class schedule.)

Classes are generally from 10:00 a.m. to 3:15 p.m., Monday

through Friday, with an hour break for lunch, and 10:00 a.m.
to 12 noon on Saturday.

If you have started the TM program but have not yet taken the TM-
Sidhi program we make it easy for you by doing a 20-minute
group meditation in the classroom beginning at 2:50 p.m., with
class ending at 3:15 p.m.

Students who have learned the TM-Sidhi program usually leave

class at 2:45 p.m. in order to do an early afternoon group TM and
TM-Sidhi program in the student program halls, or later in the
afternoon in the Golden Domes.

socializing.

Hours

Rest is the basis of activity. Therefore, we strongly encourage

you to be in bed by 10:00 p.m. Typical daily homework loads can
be comfortably completed by this time.

Quiet times in the residence halls: 9:30 p.m. –

9:30 a.m.

At times when people are usually sleeping, we ask that residence

hall students discontinue talking loudly, playing music in
their room, and talking in the hallways. These times are from 9:30
p.m. to 9:30 a.m. every day. At other times, please be respectful of
others who may be studying, especially during afternoon and
evening hours.

Visiting Hours

To ensure that you can easily maintain a good daily routine, visitors

are asked to leave the residence halls by 9:30 p.m. in the evening.
Guests also should not enter the buildings before 9:30 a.m. Note:
Visiting hours and locations for visits by opposite gender guests are
posted in the residence halls.

Exercise and Fitness

Undergraduate students are required to participate in four hours of

physical activity per week and complete a fitness assessment every
semester. We also offer recreation and exercise classes in a variety
of activities and sports, with class times to meet most schedules.
The Recreation Center and the outdoor swimming pool are open
