Holidays
A&M System employees generally receive from 12 to 15
holidays each year. The state legislature determines the number
of holidays, and the A&M System Board of Regents approves
the specific days based on the recommendations of each A&M System member chief executive officer. To view your System member's holiday schedule for the 2009–2010 fiscal year,
