University Policy for Religious Holidays
Students have the right to practice the religion of their choice. Each semester students should submit in writing to their instructors by the end of the second full week of classes their documented religious holiday schedule for the semester. Faculty must permit students who miss work for the purpose of religious observance to make up this work.
Right of Appeal
A student who believes that an instructor has treated him/her unfairly, regarding any policy or procedure, may appeal to the academic dean of the instructor's academic unit.
