Religious Holy Days

If you need to be absent from classes for the observance of a religious holy day, you are required to submit a written request to each instructor prior to the absence for the religious holy day(s) that will be missed. Although you will be excused from classes, you will be responsible for make-up of all work or tests missed in the time frame specified by each instructor due to your absence on the religious holy day. The instructor will respond appropriately if you fail to satisfactorily complete the assignment or examination within the specified time frame. A “religious holy day” means a holy day observed by a religion that is exempt from taxation under the federal tax code.
