*The standard workweek is Sunday-Thursday.
**Texas A&M University is required in its agreement with the Qatar Foundation to "abide by the applicable laws and regulations of the State of Qatar, and shall respect the cultural, religious and social customs of the State of Qatar."
Consequently, the university is required to observe this holiday even though it spans two fiscal years, FY2011 and FY2012. In order to correct this imbalance, the university will observe two fewer days on its holiday schedule during FY2012. |
