Lafayette Morehouse, formerly known as More University, is an experimental community originated in 1968 by Dr. Victor Baranco and his wife and lifelong friend, Dr. Suzanne Baranco. They designed a lifestyle where people could have fun, not do anything they didn't want to do, serve the world unselfishly and make a profit.

Dr. Cindy Baranco was Vic's second wife and his inseparable partner for the last 27 years of his life. Since Vic's death in 2002, Cindy has assumed the leadership of the community.

Lafayette Morehouse is predicated on the belief that people are right the way they are. The goal of the group is to live pleasurably. The group operates with a one no-vote system so that every member of the group has an equal say on all proposals. Living in a group and the rewards and challenges it creates has been the focus of our interest and research over the past 40 years.

Our community has developed a series of groups and courses that describe and demonstrate our findings in the areas of communication, sensuality, man/woman relationships, jealousy, money, possessions and other issues of group living. We support ourselves by presenting this information to the interested public. We receive no funding from public or private institutions.

Our community exists in Lafayette, California and on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. We offer groups and courses on evenings and weekends at many locations at the request of our students.
