The College closed and was bought by the Maharishi's TM Movement in the early 80's I think. I lived on the MIU campus off and on for 6 years. Now it's called MUM. (university of management)
I can't wait to leave Iowa but can never quite reach escape velocity. I grew up in the Northwest near the Pacific ocean and Cascade mountains with actual trees, mountains, and real lakes. Iowas has "ponds" and reseseviors. The smell in Iowa is an acquired taste too. I don't notice it unless I leave and come back. All that pig manure and fertilizer in the air.
I'm making the best of it. Besides, I've made a resolution that I need to be sober at least a year before I move.
