The University will be operating under its Orange Appreciation Days format for the Winter Break period beginning at 5 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 23, 2022, through Monday, Jan. 2, 2023, resuming normal building occupancy schedules on Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2023.

During the Winter Break/Orange Appreciation Days period:

  • All academic and administrative buildings will be locked or closed.
  • Building temperatures will be lowered to 60 degrees unless prior arrangements have been made.

Request for Building Access:

If you require your building to be open over the Winter Break/Orange Appreciation Days period, please submit a request to your building coordinator, noting the specific dates and times. Requests should be made by 5 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 15. (Note that faculty and staff will be able to access the buildings you work in, as usual, by swiping their SU ID cards, even when the buildings are locked.)

Request for Adjustments to Temperature and Lighting:

Deans, directors and department heads may submit a detailed request for adjustments to temperature and lighting during the Winter Break/Orange Appreciation Days period. Please review the University’s temperature guidelines.  We ask that requests be made using the online form by 5 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 15. Requests will be reviewed and approved by either the vice president and chief facilities officer or the provost.

The following buildings will be excluded from the temperature setback, and will remain on normal access, temperature and lighting settings:
