Holidays

Holidays The University observes several special occasions during the year as holidays.  During a holiday, the university is closed for regular business.  As a benefit, all full-time faculty and staff employees receive holiday time off with pay.  The University traditionally observes 14 holidays during the year, but reserves the right to change holiday observance practices at anytime.  Holiday pay is not provided during unpaid leaves of absence.

During some years, the University may provide “floating” holidays to be used at the employee’s discretion, with supervisor approval.  Floating holidays must be used during the assigned year.  Unused days will not carry-over to the next year.  Floating holidays must be used in four-hour increments.
