Xue Xue Institute's ambitious plans include publishing books, educational texts, magazines and e-zines; consultation services for businesses, brand management, marketing; exhibitions; and research into the culture industries.

In addition to signing up for existing courses, it is also possible to commission your own classes. Xue Xue has a free shuttle bus that leaves Taipei City Hall MRT station every half hour. Call 0800-068-089 for timetable information.

On Friday evenings the institute holds concerts. "People work a lot. They have childhood and office friends, but not very many like-minded friends. Xue Xue Institute is a platform to meet like-minded friends," Kris Lin said. Besides being a university, it has the potential to be a 21st-century dating venue.

Classes include: Ancient Wisdom, Branding, Color, Creativity, Cuisine Arts, Design, Digital Media, East Asian Studies, Entrepreneurship, Fashion, Global Culture, LOHAS, Marketing, Music, Philosophy, Publishing, Reading Sense Exploration, Spatial Perception, and Spirituality.
