What is University policy concerning classes on religious holidays?
In setting the academic calendar for each year, the University tries to avoid obvious conflicts with any holidays (such as New Year’s Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas) that involve most University students, faculty and staff. For other holidays affecting large numbers of University community members, no examinations may be given and no assigned work may be required on these days. Students who observe these holidays will be given an opportunity to make up missed work.
