Excuse Notes Policy
The Center for Well-Being does not provide excuse notes for routine illnesses, injuries, or mental health concerns that may lead to missed classes, labs, exams, projects, assignment deadlines, or athletic competitions/practices.
It is the responsibility of students to notify ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½s, supervisors, or coaches and make arrangements for missed classes, assignments, work, or practices as needed. This approach encourages students (as emerging adults and leaders) to advocate for themselves and take responsibility for their health and their actions. This practice is consistent with the recommendations of the American College Health Association and with local and national standards of care within college student health offices.
