The Law School Calendar differs in a number of ways from the University Calendar. Make up classes may be held at the professor's discretion to replace sessions missed due to holidays, examinations, or for other reasons.
** On Wednesday, April 16, 2008, classes will meet according to the Monday Winter Term schedule.
*** On Wednesday, October 22, 2008, classes will meet according to the Monday Fall Term schedule.
**** On Wednesday, April 22, 2009, classes will meet according to the Monday Winter Term schedule.
† All grades are ordinarily posted to student transcripts within two weeks of the Grading Deadline.
