A memorandum released by the University President today, January 5, 2007, outlined the holidays related to the ASEAN summit and the Feast of Sr. Sto. Niño.
There will be no work and no classes in all levels and in all campuses on Friday, January 12 and Monday, January 15, 2007. January 13 and 14 are considered as part of the long weekend.
This is in accordance to Presidential Proclamation 1208 signed by Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita which declares January 12 and 15 as special non-working days in the cities of Cebu, Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu.
According to the USC President's memorandum, the holding of Saturday classes on January 13 is left to the discretion of teachers and students considering "sufficiency of academic matter discussed and the practicality of coming to school with ASEAN traffic restrictions imposed."
On a related development, USC has been invited to sponsor the Holy Mass on Monday, January 15 at 2:30 p.m. at the Sto. Niño Template. This schedule remains unchanged. January 15 is also the Feast Day of St. Arnold Janssen, the Founder of the Society of the Divine Word.
On January 20, work and classes shall be only until 12:00 noon to allow those who wish to join the Sto. Niño procession to adequately prepare for it.
Finally, Monday, January 22, shall be a free day and will serve as the study day for college students who will have their midterm examinations on January 23-27, 2007. Staff from the Finance Office will be ready to serve students who wish to pay their midterm dues on this day.
