Why the calendar is changing

Every five years, the 小黄片视频 academic calendar is reviewed and approved by the university president for the next five years. During the most recent review, feedback was gathered on issues with the current calendar, primarily around the fall semester starting so late in the week and spring final exams starting in the same week as classes were finishing.

The Academic Calendar Advisory Committee, a subcommittee of the Educational Policies Council, was convened in fall 2021 to review class data, consult with the university community and present recommendations to the president for future academic calendars. Read the background below on the committee and its efforts.

Transition from the current calendar to the new calendar

For the transition, there will be four calendar days between end of summer 2023 and start of fall 2023.

  • Summer 2023 classes (Summer III) end on Wednesday, August 16
  • Fall 2023 classes start on Monday, August 21

In the future, there will be a minimum of seven calendar days between end of summer term and start of fall semester.

 

Background information

In fall 2021, members of the Academic Calendar Advisory Committee convened to review and provide recommendations to the president for the calendar for academic year 2023-2024.

Based on feedback from the university community on the academic calendar that has been in place since fall 2018, the committee鈥檚 charge was to determine the feasibility of the following:

  • Start fall semester earlier than a Thursday
  • Schedule final exam weeks to be continuous Monday to Sunday
  • Move Spring Break earlier in the semester
  • Bring 小黄片视频 into compliance with the state鈥檚 requirement for class time for the semester credit hour

The goals of the committee were the following:

  • Maintain or increase instructional days in the fall and spring semesters
  • Ensure that the faculty contract remains nine months
  • Retain, at minimum, five business days between each term for critical student and campus services
