The person that wrote this item obviously is confused or doesn’t know that Holy Week is a Christian, not a Jewish, observance. Holy Week begins on Palm Sunday and ends on Holy Saturday, the day before Easter.
And I am 100 percent sure that if Easter was not on a Sunday, but on a school day, this outfit and others like it would definitely hold classes on it just to stick it to Christians.
It’s quite obvious that their justice for all religions only goes so far. I dare them to deny the unions and hold classes on Christmas. Better yet, include this in their recruiting brochures: “Forced Classes on Christmas” —all in the name of justice. Competing universities should use this in their brochures: “No Classes on Christmas, unlike SUNY”.
I’ve heard it said:
“What was once called a Holy Day, soon became a holiday, then it became the week end.”
Just what is the founding history of this University? Most, like Harvard, Yale, ect. where founded by Christians for the message of Jesus Christ.
