Winter Break 2023: Who’s On Campus and What’s Operating?

Winter Break is now in full swing and that means our campuses are a bit quieter than usual. That said, we still have 600 residents staying with us through the holiday (and a smattering of faculty and staff), so if you’re a staff member who regularly interacts with our residents, remember to knock on doors and follow usual customer service best practices. The first day of class of the Spring Semester is January 16, but students will begin to trickle back in before that. As a result of reduced numbers, some services may be temporarily halted or modified as seen on the university’s Winter Break adjusted campus services page. Some retail venues may also be closed during break as seen below.
