Dear USF Community,
While the University of South Florida will remain open and classes will continue as scheduled on Friday, July 5, I am pleased to announce that in recognition of your hard work that has made us one of America’s leading research universities, our employees will receive an extra day off as part of our extended winter break holiday schedule. A complete winter break schedule will be shared in the coming weeks as details are finalized.
I know many of you have planned time off around the July 4 holiday and I hope you can use the opportunity to be with loved ones and celebrate safely. We also recognize that as an academic institution, many of our team members cannot take annual leave next week as we are on a condensed schedule with summer classes and other important activities, including orientation, that support the success of our students, who deserve nothing less than our best.
Thank you for everything you do for USF and all those we serve.
Sincerely,
Rhea F. Law
President
