2008-2009 Holiday Schedule

I am pleased to announce the schedule of paid holidays for 2009 (for your convenience, I have also included the remaining holidays for 2008). Please note that President Ruscio has approved an additional paid holiday for all employees on Friday, January 2, 2009 (this is in addition to the extra day, December 26, that he granted earlier this year).

Departments may choose to close their offices between the winter and New Year's holidays. Decisions to close should normally be made early in the year so employees can save CTO to be used during the period the department is closed. Employees should use floating holidays or vacation this year.
