Holidays

If you are in a 100% full-time equivalent position, each holiday established by the University is intended to give you eight hours of paid time-off.

If you are in less than a 100% full-time equivalent position, please refer to University Policy HR105 Reduced FTE Schedules to learn how to determine your holiday time.

New Year's Day: Wednesday, January 1, 2020
Memorial Day: Monday, May 25, 2020

*Both University policy and collective bargaining agreements provide that if a University holiday falls on an employee's regularly scheduled day off, the employee receives holiday compensatory time to be used at another time.
