Year End Planning and Holiday Deadlines

In observance of the Thanksgiving holiday Sponsored Programs (SP) will be closed starting 5pm Wednesday November 24, 2021, re-opening 9am Monday November 29, 2021. Beginning 2pm Wednesday November 24, 2021 there will only be a skeleton staff available to cover emergency items.  Should you have proposals or any other items due between Monday November 22, 2021-Monday November 29, 2021 we ask that you submit them to your SP RA no later than noon Friday November 19, 2021 so that we may have ample time to prioritize and review.

In observance of Intersession break, SP offices will be closed starting 1pm on Thursday December 23, 2021 through Friday December 31, 2021, re-opening 9am Monday, January 3, 2022. During this break, staff will not be available to approve or process any proposals or other sponsored research actions, including purchase requisitions. Therefore, to help with the planning, all items due between December 20, 2021 and January 10, 2022 must be submitted to your SP RA no later than Monday December 13, 2021. This also includes all invoices that may need to be submitted on or before December 31^st.  This will allow staff enough time to review and process items due before and during the break and in the first few days in January when we return.

Thank you for your assistance and we wish you a happy and healthy holiday season.
