The IUP Student Government Association (SGA) would like to take a moment to wish you all a happy and restful fall pause! This upcoming Monday and Tuesday, October 21 and 22, all classes are cancelled. The purpose of these two days are to give us students a chance to take care of ourselves!

Four years ago, SGA heard the calls from students who needed a break during the semester. We advocated for a self-care day so that students had time to take care of themselves during the long stretch to fall break. After the creation of an ad-hoc self-care day in 2021, SGA worked with IUP administration to make the fall pause a permanent addition to the academic calendar.

We have all worked hard so far this semester and deserve a time to rest and recharge for the remainder of the semester ahead. You can take this time to relax or decompress, or maybe even get caught up on some schoolwork. It's your time!

Take care, and as always, Talons Up!

Kaylee Becker-George, IUP SGA President
