Download iCal FileThe University of Illinois System including UIC's College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs will observe Juneteenth on Friday, June 17, 2022. CUPPA Offices will be closed and no classes will be held.
The first observance of the Juneteenth federal and state holiday, which falls on a Sunday this year, will occur on the preceding Friday to accommodate academic scheduling. Going forward, it will be observed on the date of June 19 when it occurs on a weekday, or following forthcoming state guidance for observance when it falls on a weekend.
The annual observance of this historic day will provide us with an opportunity not only for celebration, but also for continued engagement and conversation toward eradicating racism and encouraging social equity.
Events will be held throughout our campus communities:
