Education Week is an amazing experience to have with Brigham Young University in early August of each year. This massive education program offers 1,000+ classes on a variety of subjects. These include education, religion, marriage and family, the arts, history, genealogy, art, communication, youth classes, and more. It's mostly geared towards adults but anyone 14 years and older is welcome to attend. These classes are taught by BYU faculty, instructors from Seminaries and Institutes of Religion of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and other experts. A highlight of the program is a campus devotional that traditionally features a General Authority from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The devotional is open to the general public. As well they have nightly performances and a youth dance Thursday evening. This information was pulled from their site https://educationweek.byu.edu/ . If you are interested in signing up to attend I highly recommend doing it as soon as possible. They have early registration prices. As well, if you don't want to attend for the entire week, they have single day prices as well! Transportation to BYU campus from our buildings also just got a million times simpler. Provo city just installed a bus system that runs by both major malls, universities, and roads in the area. There are stops located 2 blocks away from each of our buildings and they are free to use! Just look up the "UVX Provo" transportation system and you'll be able to find a route map and general times. https://www.rideuta.com/Rider-Tools/Schedules-and-Maps/830X-Utah-Valley-Express Once the bus picks you up it is just a short 10 minute ride up to campus. Depending on which building your classes will be held in, you will either get off on the South Campus Station or North Campus Station. Then, when the day is done, just return to that location and board a bus going the opposite way to get home. Super safe and so easy.
