There is no charge to observe classes at institute.  We simply ask that you email the institute office (japanseattle01@gmail.com) to let us know that you are coming. Please consider making a donation to our operating costs via Paypal or dropping off a check in the institute office when you pick up your nametag.

Key Cards

All participants will need a key card (which is also a meal card, if meals are pre-ordered) in order to access buildings and elevators on SPU campus. We recommend keeping keycards behind your name tag. Please do NOT write on them, bend them, or attach stickers. Key cards must be returned at the end of institute, preferably in the same envelope they are issued in.  There is a $20 replacement fee for key cards that are lost, damaged, or not returned.
