On February 25, 2001, The Pioneer Press reported that Professor Anantanand Rambachan of St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN has created a CD-ROM entitled "Hinduism: Wisdom and Way" to teach about Hinduism. The CD-ROM aims to teach Hindu children growing up in the United States about their religion. Rambachan explained that "Here, Hinduism is growing in a culture in which it is not predominant. There is no reflection of Hinduism in the environment of a child. So you have to develop resources to meet that kind of need for children." Ordering information for the CD-ROM can be found at "www.manitouheights.org/hinduism/".
