Charge
The Campus Academic Calendar Committee (CACC) shall develop a three-year projected Campus Academic Calendar that meets CSU requirements
and, to the extent possible, the needs of the campus community with regard to student academic success and employment opportunities, feeder school

and Definitions regarding: minimum/maximum instructional days and academic workdays; year round operation; CSU pay-period certification

dates, not required by the Chancellor’s Office, but useful to faculty and staff for planning purposes, e.g., grade due dates and summer and winter
session dates.
