The academic

of approximately 15 weeks each and summer sessions
of varying length. The last week of the fall
and spring semesters is set aside for final
examinations. If no final examination is given,
the course will meet for a final class during
the scheduled final examination period.
The holidays and vacations usually observed
by the university are as follows: Labor Day;
Thanksgiving (Wednesday–Sunday); Christmas
Eve/Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve/New
Year’s Day (included in the mid-year intersession
break); Martin Luther King, Jr. Day; Inauguration
Day (every four years); Memorial Day; and Independence
Day. Spring break is the week following the
spring semester midterm. Classes continue until
10:40 p.m. the evening before a holiday or vacation
period.
