Wishing You Happy Holidays and a Restful Winter Break

December 12, 2025

Dear Students, 

As 2025 draws to a close, we’d like to thank you for another incredible year. Your encouragement of one another, your curiosity in the classroom, and your everyday contributions to campus life are what make the U of A such a great institution. 

We extend our warmest congratulations to those graduating this weekend — we know you’ll continue to excel as you take what you’ve learned here and make your mark on the world. And to everyone returning in January, we hope this winter break brings cherished moments with loved ones and time to rest, refocus and prepare for the countless opportunities ahead.
