</aside>

Sign-up period for Main Round: Feb 4 10AM - Feb 12 23:59 PM
- In general, each student is expected to choose ONLY 2 different communities** to visit via the “fieldtrip sign-up (Main Round)” link on Moodle. For example, for those who already joined the World Religion Day, only one more visit is needed for the sign-up.
Sign-up period for Clear Round: Feb 13 10 AM - 3 days before specific field visit.
- In principle, as long as vacancies are available, you can sign up for any specific visit 3 DAYS before it is conducted.
Please be mindful that our community partners have generously shared with us their time and energy to prepare the field visit for us, so do show up on time. And notice that any absence or late show up of the registered visits will be considered seriously in the grading. If you have difficulty in attending the selected session(s) (e.g. illness), please send an email to Lunar ([email protected]) BEFORE the session(s).
Unless otherwise specified, the visits are conducted in English.
(Usually one or two days) Before each visit, we will send participants an email to provide a short briefing of the program.

***** If you are religious, the communities for visit should NOT be your own faith. This is to encourage you to have interfaith exposure and experience.*****
