Over the years, we've established the following Terms of Study to ensure that students receive the greatest benefit from their work with us, and to preserve the integrity of our curriculum and programs. 1 The student should call in each week on a landline phone, as cell phones and VoIP phones such as Skype may result in poor network performance on the phone bridge. Students who opt to place the call via cell phone or VoIP assume responsibility for the acceptability of the connection. In the event that such calls cause excessive noise, repeat disconnects, or other issues that hinder the normal course of study, the instructor may end the call early and reschedule the missed meeting at a time when the student has access to a landline. 2. Students may sign up for TWO sessions as often as they wish. 3. Students should arrange to phone the bridge a few minutes before the start of the call each week and be available to stay the entire hour. We ask students not to ring in later than ten minutes into the hour for any reason, as the tones that sound when someone enters or leaves the bridge can be disruptive once the class is under way. Also in the interest of keep disruptions to a minimum, students who have Call Waiting should disable it prior to placing the call. 4. All students of the Field Center are required to maintain an attitude of respect for the instructor and for each other, and to refrain from polemics, sarcasm, profanity, and any other inappropriate forms of expression during the call or in emails or other forms of study-related communication. The failure to honor this requirement may result in loss of access to the phone bridge, Field Center support, and eligibility for future enrollments. 5. Phone bridge numbers and PIN access codes are to be kept confidential and used only during the session in which the student is enrolled. 6. Completion of the Field Center Course is prerequisite to Practicum enrollment. Students who informally distribute or share Course content may forfeit their student standing and Field Center support, including eligibility for future enrollments or purchases for which Course completion is prerequisite. By registering, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to abide by these terms.

TWO TWO
provides a new depth of understanding and appreciation for the Course and
for our engagement with the Mystery. Another first-rate offering from the
Field Center! Being a ÒlonerÓ doesnÕt necessarily mean youÕre not with someone. ItÕs a stance defined by the sense that life is an effort, a solitary struggle, or burden rather than an easy collaboration. Loners (who donÕt want to be loners) feel that they carry the "weight of the world" on their shoulders, and that putting down this burden will lead to unwanted, even dangerous outcomes. As a rule, such a stance is informed by long-held contradictions. TWO will be timely and useful for you if you:
The ÒtwoÓ to which this remarkable class turns its attention is not the two of Òyou plus another person,Ó but the two of Òyou and Life,Ó in the sense of a tangible, active, and deeply fulfilling partnership. One of the great joys and benefits of Field practice is the sense of collaboration it brings. This class is designed to clear away any contradictions that are in the way of a direct and joyful experience of the Field as our abiding Partner.
