SU-event is an event specific wifi network that can be requested through a Conference and Event Services event coordinator.

Access to SU-event is provided upon request at campus locations where large SeattleU events take place. For guest wireless access in locations where SU-event is not available, guest accounts can be requested through a Seattle University employee sponsor or Conference and Event Services for access to the SU-guest wireless network.
