Rules:
- Wherever possible, in running text calendar dates should be written out in day-month-date-year format with elements separated by commas.
- Spell out when the month stands alone or appears with a year.
- For months used with a specific date, abbreviate only month names: Jan., Feb., Aug., Sept., Oct., Nov. and Dec. (spell out all others).
- In tables and charts, day and month abbreviations can be used without the period.
- Use lowercase “s” to pluralize decades.
- For informal reference to a decade, use an apostrophe prior to the final two digits.
- When writing multiple years, use the following format 2017-18 (not 2017-2018).
- The academic year at Sask Polytech is July 1 of one year to June 30 of the next year.
