Summer Fridays, Holiday Closure and Remote Work Updates

Dear TC Community,

In observance of Memorial Day, the College will be closed on Monday, May 25th. Please review the Paid Staff Holidays schedule for a complete list of College observed holidays.

We are also pleased to announce that the College will observe “Summer Fridays” beginning May 22nd through September 4th. During this period, the official campus hours of operation will be 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Thursday, and 9:00 am - 1:00 pm on Fridays.

Additional Staff Guidance:

If you work until 1:00 pm on those Fridays, it will be considered a full day of work.
If you are a full-time hourly employee and have questions about how to record the hours between 1:00 pm and 5:00 pm on your timesheet, please contact your HR Department Representative.
If you take the day off (for vacation or a personal day), you should still record 7 hours of leave time.

Remote Work Extended through August 1st

We understand that many of you are thinking about your summer plans and would like to know how long the College will continue to operate remotely. We continue to closely monitor the changing COVID-19 situation in New York City and globally. As such, in compliance with current NY State Regulations, the College will continue to operate remotely, except in the case of essential in-person functions, through August 1st. We will provide updates as circumstances change.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us at 212-678-3175 or via email at hr@tc.columbia.edu.

Have a safe and enjoyable summer!

Take care,

Teachers College Human Resources
