 University Office Hours Policy

In an effort to serve students, visitors, and the public as effectively as possible, offices at St. Bonaventure University are open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., except on holidays. Offices required to open at 8:00 a.m. to accommodate students will operate on a schedule of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. A 5:00 p.m. closing is the norm for the University. Generally, offices will not be open during the noon lunch hour, although office personnel will make themselves available as needed or called for during this time.

The University Offices will be open during the Summer months beginning at 8:00 a.m. and concluding at 4:30 p.m. daily, with a half hour lunch break, as with regular hours. Consistent with past practices, any office requiring extended office coverage should make arrangements accordingly on an office by office basis. Hours for shift work employees, such as housekeeping, security and maintenance, will remain on the regularly scheduled hours as during the academic year. The Office of Human Resources will notify the University community, by memo, on an annual basis, of the effective and concluding dates for Summer hours.

The Office of Security is open twenty-four hours a day and ready to assist students, members of the Bonaventure community, and visitors in any way it can regardless of the time of day.
