Dear RIT Colleagues,
As we head into the holiday season, we want to express our heartfelt thanks for your continued dedication to RIT. We recognize that this has been a challenging year, and we are sincerely grateful for everything you continue to do for our students, for one another, and for the university.
To support time to rest, recharge, and be with family and friends, we will make Wednesday, November 25, and Thursday, December 24, full-day paid holidays this year, rather than the half-day holidays originally scheduled. While we understand additional time away from work cannot take the place of a salary increase, this is something we can do to support employees. We hope this additional time away provides an opportunity to rest and enjoy the people and traditions that are important to you.
RIT is an extraordinary community because of the people who make it so. We are deeply grateful for all that you contribute, and we wish you and those you care about a joyful and peaceful holiday season.
Sincerely,
