How do American universities arrange annual leave?

American college holidays include Thanksgiving, winter vacation, summer vacation and spring break, which last for three months. In addition, some countries have public holidays.

Winter holidays include national holidays such as Christmas and New Year, which last for three weeks to one month.

In America, winter vacation usually begins two weeks before Christmas and ends in early January. The holiday lasts three to five weeks. Every school is still different, but they are all the same.

American descent

The origin of Thanksgiving can be traced back to the beginning of American history, and it originated from early immigrants in Plymouth, Massachusetts. These immigrants were called Puritans in England. Dissatisfied with the incomplete religious reform of the Church of England and the political repression and religious persecution of the king and the Church of England, these Puritans left the Church of England and went to Holland. Later, they decided to move to a desolate place on the other side of the Atlantic, hoping to live freely according to their own wishes.

1620, the famous Mayflower arrived in America with 102 Puritans who could not bear the persecution of English religion. That winter, they met unimaginable difficulties and were hungry and cold. At this time, Indians brought necessities to immigrants and taught them to hunt, fish and grow corn. With the help of Indians, the immigrants finally got a bumper harvest. On the day of celebrating the harvest, according to religious traditions and customs, immigrants set a day to thank God and decided to invite them to celebrate the festival together to thank the Indians for their sincere help.
