Can we get directions to registration?
Can we get directions to the dorms?
Yes, once you arrive at registration (which is in the University Center) we will direct you to the dorms. They are less than a five minute walk from the University Center. For directions to the PLU campus, click here. Your goal is the parking lot on the corner of 122nd Street and Park Ave. S in Tacoma. There you will find a Visitors Parking lot. Park there and cross the street to the Univerisity Center. We will be in the front lobby. We will direct you to the dorms after you register.
How do you decide who rooms with who in the dorms?
We make every attempt to put students from same school together in dorm rooms. Unfortunately, due to fire regulations we can only room two students to a room. Therefore, if your school sends an odd number of students one person will wind up with someone from another school that also has an odd number as well.
Can two students share one laptop and both get credit for bringing a laptop?
We have no problem with this. Either we can schedule the students on opposite schedules so they are both using the laptop at different times or they can be in the same technology class and sit next to each other working on one computer. As long as we don't have to rent a computer for their use, they can both deduct the $50.
I have another question about the workshop that I do not see here. Who do I ask?
