1. The Office of the Registrar will prepare an illustrative list of dates for the major religious
holidays (as specified by leaders of the local religious communities). This list will be included
each semester in the Schedule of Classes and Registrar's web site along with this policy and with
a note to the effect that students wanting accommodations for observance of other religious holidays
should contact their instructors.
2. The Office of the Registrar will send out, well in advance of any given semester, the dates of
those same holidays, with the added information that detailed descriptions of the major holidays and
of what is or may be involved in the observance of them is available on the IUPUC web pages. The
Registrar will write regularly to the various deans and chairs, indicating that they, in turn, are
to inform the faculty (including associate instructors) under their supervision concerning this policy
and of the importance of observing it.
3. The Office of the Registrar will alert department chairs and scheduling officers to religious
holidays at least one year in advance so that they can avoid scheduling examinations for multi-section
classes on religious holidays.
4. The Office of the Registrar makes available a
Request for Course Accommodation Due to Religious Observance Form for student use in requesting
accommodation for a religious holiday.
