While schools of higher education are numerous throughout the world and growing in size and influence, problems of mounting complexity are keeping pace with this growth and are indeed associated with it. The most complex revolve about such questions as how to combat the rising mediocrity in educational goals and practices, mass conformity to obsolete standards of academic proficiency, uninspired classroom routine, preparation for jobs that no longer exist, and scholastic discouragement stemming from considerations of race, nationality, theology, and wealth at a time when the need for intuitive perception was never greater.

 

What is needed in this first decade of the Twenty-First Century is a world-orientated university that acknowledges no barriers to the pursuit of knowledge, a school of such universal proportions that its academic dimensions embrace all that humankind has ever learned without religious bias, ethnic animosities, national hatred, or cultural prejudice - completely non-sectarian, non-political, intercultural and interracial.

 

Such a school is the World University. Its master plan calls for the evolution of a new kind of humanity for this coming age of social and economic responsibility, in short, an invulnerable and incorruptible citizen of the world who can safely be entrusted with the powers that accrue to the selfless. Nothing less than this can justify the existence of a University of this depth and magnitude.

 

Usually colleges and universities are founded by persons of wealth and prestige and are dedicated to serve the elite and the privileged. The World University has grown from the grass roots on all continents and in many nations with educators who are concerned with the welfare of those being served. This is your invitation to join this dedicated body of concerned citizens and to help in the building of a learning institution that could well become one of the great achievements of our time.
