It should be noted that these statutory holidays do not apply to Dawson faculty. Statutory Holidays for our teachers are established by the Academic Calendar and in accordance with Article 5.8-00 of the Collective Agreement, which reads as follows:
5.8-01: During a semester, professors shall be entitled to the holidays scheduled for the students in the school calendar. These are statutory holidays.
5.8-02: For the purpose of clause 5-8.01, a “semester” (fall or winter) shall mean the period from the start of student classes until the last day of student examinations, in accordance with the school calendar.
