IT Colleagues,

It is common among many cultures to celebrate the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, with holidays, festivals, and religious observances in the surrounding days. Historically, these celebrations often involved feasts of the last of perishable supplies before the harsh months of winter, but there are many different reasons to celebrate. Holidays celebrated around the world at this time include Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Eve.

Christmas: Sunday, December 25, 2022
Hanukkah: Sunday, December 18, 2022 – Monday, December 26, 2022
Kwanzaa: Monday, December 26, 2022 – Monday, January 1, 2023

We hope that each of you have a safe and happy winter break spent with those close to you.

Thank you,
The SJSU IT Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee
