Spring Semester 2021
Classes will begin on our published start date (Jan. 11), but with several adjustments to the academic calendar:
- The first week of classes (Jan. 11-15) will be online so that members of the university community have ample time to quarantine prior to any in-person sessions.
- There will be no spring break. Instead, there will be two instructional breaks — on Tuesday, Feb. 9, and Wednesday, March 31 — where there will be no classes. .
- SP 21 classes will end April 21 with a reading day on April 22, and final exams will take place April 23-29.
- Commencement will take place May 9 in a format to be determined.
- Summer term classes will begin May 12.
