  • 3-at-1 time Weekend Seminar Discount: Register for three or more weekend seminars (Distinguished Scholar, Adventures in Ideas and/or Dialogues) at one time and receive a $10 discount off each event purchased. For example, you and two friends want to attend the same seminar. If you purchase all three tickets at one time, you’ll receive a $10 discount off each ticket. (Please note: Please note, however, that if you cancel one or more of these three seminars, the tuition for the remaining seminar or seminars IF FEWER THAN THREE, will revert to the regular price. Your refund will reflect the adjusted price.)
