Religious Observances

It is the University's policy to make every effort to accommodate students, staff and faculty who observe other religious Holy Days. Further details can be found by looking at the University's policy on the accommodation of religious observances.

The University encourages members of the teaching staff to accommodate students who celebrate Holy Days other than those formally recognized by the University through regular scheduling or statutory holidays. This means that instructors are expected to make every effort to avoid scheduling tests, examinations or other compulsory activities at these times, or, if that is not possible, to give students the opportunity to make-up work that they miss.
