Full-term hybrid courses meet on campus during the weeks noted above. Instruction may take various forms during off-campus weeks, but will always involve substantial interaction between the faculty and students.
*Monday, Sep. 7, is the Labor Day holiday. Instructors who teach classes that meet on Mondays are expected to make up for Labor Day with online instruction.
**Thanksgiving break (Nov. 26-Nov. 29) falls on an off-campus week. Instructors who teach classes that meet on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday are expected to follow off-campus protocols.
Final Examination Period: Instructors must perform some form of final assessment during the final examination period. This may take the form of an in-class exam, final project, take-home exam, or final paper submitted during the final examination period. See the Final Examination Schedule on the Office of the Registrar's webpage.
