1 In fall quarter only, first-year ND classes begin a
week earlier to accommodate study days scheduled
throughout the quarter, when first-year ND classes
are not held. Study days are tentatively scheduled for
9/28/09, 10/20/09, 10/28/09, 11/5/09, 11/6/09.
2 During interim clinic, all clinic services run normally.
Interim clinic is required; exceptions must be approved
in advance. Students staff the shifts in which they were
registered, in the quarter just ended.
3 During clinic closure, the clinic does not offer patient
visits, but appointment phones and dispensary are
open (except when one of the clinic closure days falls on
a paid holiday). Appointment phones and dispensary
hours may be altered from their standard operating
hours. The clinic is closed on all official holidays.
4 Bastyr community day is focused on the health and
well-being of members of the Bastyr community. Activities
are scheduled for the afternoon and classes and
clinic shifts are cancelled from 12 noon - 5 p.m. so that
members of the community can participate.
5 Although religious holidays are NOT official University
holidays, the University's policy is to attempt
to accommodate the observance of religious practices.
Students are responsible for the material covered but
will not have religious absences count against any attendance
requirement. Students observing such holidays
are required to notify faculty during the first week of
classes and find substitutes for clinic shifts affected. Students
should follow the "reschedule exam" procedures
in the event an exam falls on a religious holiday.
The following are the major religious holidays in
the coming academic year (holidays that occur during
break periods are not listed): Jewish (holidays begin at
sunset of the day listed and continue through sunset of
the final day listed): 9/18-19/09, 9/27-28/09. Christian:
4/2/10, 4/4/10. Students who observe religious
holidays not included above or have religious restrictions
against attending classes on weekends (Bastyr
University schedules clinical training and occasional
required courses or intensives on weekends) must contact
their program chair/dean, in advance, when such
a conflict occurs. Efforts will be made to resolve such
conflicts, but a resolution cannot be guaranteed.
