Fall Weekend is a long weekend for students at the midway point of the 12 week session. The Friday of Fall Weekend students will not have classes however campus resources remain open (i.e. offices, dining hall, library, etc.). Students can use this weekend to make a trip home or take a break on campus. There are no special programs or activities planned for this time outside of previously scheduled sporting events or activities.
Students can receive packages at our on-campus Service Center and should be addressed:

Attention: Student’s name and building/room #

The staff at the Service Center will then send an email to the student notifying them of package receipt.
