Leave Time for Observance of Juneteenth

PSS would like to draw attention to the availability of leave time in observance of Juneteenth. The following is an excerpt regarding this from the campus communication sent on June 17th. 

"In partnership with institutions across the University System of Maryland, UMBC encourages faculty, staff, and students to take this opportunity to put our values into action by participating in Juneteenth events and/or increasing their personal knowledge through study and reflection. On Friday, June 19, beginning at 12 p.m, UMBC is offering administrative leave for the remainder of the day to accommodate this work. Please talk with your supervisor to coordinate coverage. Summer classes scheduled to be held after 12 p.m. will also be canceled in observance."
