Points to Remember
Did we miss something?
While we make every effort to include all major religious and spiritual observances in this Calendar of Religious and Spiritual Observances we realize we may have missed one that is important to you. If you know of an observance that we have missed, please send an e-mail to caroline.bates@usd.edu. We will review your request and if we determine that it fits within the content guidelines for this page, we'll post it here for everyone to enjoy.
We appreciate the Chancellor’s Diversity Initiative, at the University of Missouri, for granting us permission to use information from their Guide to Religions: Major Religious Holidays and Suggested Accommodations.
