Annual University Holiday Memo

The university has released its annual Holiday Memo, which provides information about holidays and reduced activity during Winter Break.

Veterans Day – Nov. 11

The university will be open and classes in session on Veterans Day, Monday, Nov. 11. Only employees required to conduct necessary business should be requested to work. Non-exempt employees who work shall be compensated at 1.5 times (either time or pay). Exempt staff who work will be given equivalent time off at a later date. More info is in the Holiday Memo.

Discretionary Day: Use it or lose it

Be sure to use your 2024 discretionary day by Dec. 21. You can determine if you have an available discretionary day by logging into Employee Self Service/HRIS. If a line for “D-Day” appears, you have an available discretionary day (an hours balance will not be displayed). Once you use your discretionary day, the line will disappear.
