Daily Schedule

The following schedule is the same for each day, except for Mondays, Tuesdays, and where indicated on the Important Course Dates page. Mondays only have a morning debate session, with the rest of the day off. Tuesdays are full days off. Three optional outings on Tuesdays are scheduled (to Mysore, local monasteries, and the beach) - Sera Jey will organize transportation, but students who wish to go must cover their own expenses. On the two Late Nite Debate days, there will be no evening debate period at 6:30 pm; instead, there will be a group debate from 8:00 pm until midnight. Regular debate periods will alternate between partner debate and group debate. Tutors and instructors will be present at every debate session. Debate periods may be extended as students gain experience.
