Abstract: Results of an international campaign to monitor the unique pre-main sequence eclipsing variable KH 15D are reported. Excellent coverage was achieved on three eclipses during the last season. It is interesting that the first and last of these were more similar in shape, while the middle one was somewhat different. This raises the possibility that the true period of the system is twice the interval between eclipses (48.36 days). Possible models for the system are briefly discussed.
