Dear Colleagues:
I'm pleased to share some good news: We’ve decided to make Wednesday, November 27, a University holiday.
The way this year’s calendar worked out, Wednesday was scheduled to be a workday. However, with no classes scheduled and in consideration of travel plans and family commitments, Matt Renna recommended that we add an extra holiday to this year’s calendar. If you’ve previously requested next Wednesday as a vacation or personal day, that time off will not be charged against you.
More broadly, with Thanksgiving approaching, I wanted to take this moment to express my thanks to each and every one of you for your hard work and dedication to Pace and our students. As I’ve been attending employee recognition ceremonies, I find myself deeply inspired by the faculty and staff members who have given so much to this institution, and who take such pride in their work.
Our mission of
Opportunitas
is an important one, and I know how committed each of you is to it—whether you’ve given decades of service or you’re new to the University. As we head into Thanksgiving, I’m very grateful for that.
May each of you have a happy, healthy, and thankful holiday.
Sincerely,
