We hope you’ve had a chance to read the good news from President Bacow, announcing three paid “bonus” days associated with the Memorial Day, Juneteenth, and Independence Day holidays. These include; Tuesday, May 31 (following the Memorial Day holiday); Friday, June 17 (in advance of the Juneteenth holiday); and Friday, July 1 (in advance of the Independence Day holiday). 

To help people disconnect from work and relax, the Office of the Dean strongly recommends that, if possible, managers encourage staff to schedule additional vacation days around at least one of these long weekends.
