As a reminder, The University of Toledo will close for the annual winter break from Tuesday, Dec. 24, through Wednesday, Jan. 1, at a time when most departments are slower than usual and to give our faculty and staff time to rest and rejuvenate for the new year.

Access to buildings will be restricted, and facility operations and ground maintenance also will be limited during the break. The University of Toledo Medical Center and its operations will remain open for patients and their guests.

The end of the semester and winter break also brings new hours and temporary closures of on-campus services through the holidays.
