COMMENTS:   

1 The state has designated Lincoln’s Birthday as a “floating holiday" in 2025 for M/C employees, non-teaching professional faculty, and employees represented by CSEA and PEF. Employees in the Security Services and Security Supervisors negotiating units observe all holidays listed (no Floating holidays).  

2 Classes are in session; administrative offices will be closed. If student-facing offices or other administrative areas are required to be open, staffing is at the discretion of the appropriate Vice President. UUP staff may be directed to staff offices as operationally necessary and receive holiday compensatory time as per The Agreement.  

Non-essential staff may take the day off and charge their time with supervisory approval. 

4 The state will announce in August 2025 if Election Day will be designated as a “floating holiday.” The University will communicate to campus when that becomes available. 

NOTES:

Eligible veterans and former reservists have certain other options for Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans’ Day. Employees may inquire in the Payroll Office for more information and employees should discuss with supervisors for planning purposes.
