Holidays Observed​

Center for Advanced Legal Studies observes the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. Schedule changes to accommodate holidays are provided in the table below.

In all other cases, live classes will be held on their scheduled dates unless unforeseen circumstances or instructor availability conflicts arise. In such cases, exceptions may be necessary, and the instructor will address them directly with the class. When a schedule change occurs, students are welcome to attend the live class or view the recording with affirmation. However, it is strongly encouraged that students attend the rescheduled lecture to ensure they do not miss any important information.
