College's Policy on Observing Religious Holidays: https://www.conncoll.edu/campus-life/religious-and-spiritual-life/

Religious holidays that fall during the academic year calendar and impact class meetings are noted on the calendar. When religious holidays do not impact the class schedule, but adjustments are made to College operations (such as Ramadan), the community will receive email notification from the Office of Religious and Spiritual Programs with details of adjusted dining schedules and policies. 

Please refer to the Events Calendar for a comprehensive schedule of events and holidays.
