College Closed - Holiday Break

As we near the end of the fall semester, I offer a reminder that the College will be officially closed to all students, faculty, staff and the general public during the December holiday break. The safety and security of the College community and the public are of the utmost importance to us.  The closing of the College is to ensure the College is protected against liability in the event of injury or death to anyone on the premises during periods when the College is closed.

It is our desire that all of our employees will be able to enjoy the holidays and spend quality time with family and friends.  Unfortunately, limited staff from Public Safety, Facilities, and Technology Services will have to work during this period.  To remain open during these periods would certainly place a burden on a larger number of employees for ensuring the safety and security of others.  As such, no activities or events are to take place during the time period of Friday, December 24 through Sunday, January 2.  Public Safety staff have been instructed not to unlock doors or permit access to any building or office.

As a reminder this year, it is only the holiday period of December 24 through January 2 that the campuses are locked down and individuals are denied access.  During the other holidays when the College is closed, limited access is provided to our faculty and staff.
