Please indicate in your syllabus and announce to your students that when conflicts do arise, you and your teaching assistants will follow UW-Madison policy and provide accommodations.Įlection observances: Students must inform instructors at least two weeks prior to Election Day about their commitment as election officials. There is no practical, dignified, or legal means to assess individual claims.Īs you finalize your summer term syllabi, we encourage you whenever possible to avoid scheduling conflicts between examinations or other major course activities and religious observances. A student’s claim of a religious conflict, which may include travel time, should be accepted at face value. State law mandates that any student with a conflict between an academic requirement and any religious observance must be given an alternative for meeting the academic requirement. We write to remind you of UW-Madison’s religious observances policy and to highlight faculty legislation regarding Election Day observances.
