The College observes Legal Holidays not to exceed the number provided for state employees, which will normally be 12 holidays per year. Prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, the President shall establish the Legal Holiday schedule. Input may be solicited from faculty and staff. Once the President approves the schedule, it is presented to the Board of Trustees for final approval.
The Legal Holidays are as follows:

New Year’s Day (1 day)
Martin Luther King Day (1 day)
Easter Friday or Monday as academic calendar dictates (1 day)
Memorial Day (1 day)
Independence Day (1 day)
Labor Day (1 day)

All full-time college employees shall be entitled to Holiday Leave with pay on Legal Holidays. During periods when the college is closed for deferred maintenance projects and/or for system upgrades in Information Technology, employees are directed to complete the required online human resources, safety, and security training and the self-evaluation portion of the college’s personnel evaluation process or to use accumulated compensatory time if appropriate.
