Religious Observances

The Feast of Unleavened Bread. Celebrates the Jews being freed from slavery in Egypt and making the exodus from Egypt to the holy land of Israel. For many Jewish people celebrating Passover, eating bread and bread products is prohibited, and seder meals are enjoyed. Purchased food should be labeled "Kosher for Passover." Begins at sundown of the first day and ends at sundown of the last day. Work is often prohibited the first two days and the last two days. Some students or employees may request schedule adjustments in order to observe.
