Dear students,
Our Executive Leadership has requested that Saturday classes begin at 6:30 pm for the remainder of this semester in observance of the Sabbath and to facilitate students' timely attendance to classes. It has been challenging for many students to join classes promptly at 6:00 pm on Saturdays, resulting in missed learning and examination time.
This change in schedule which takes effect immediately. Also note that effective Summer 2025, all Saturday evening classes must be scheduled from 7:00 pm. Please be guided accordingly.
With thanks,
Dr. Sheilah Paul, Vice President Academic Affairs and Provost, UCC
