Spacer Verification of Medical Illness Policy Spacer
 

Bowling Green State University Student Health Service recognizes that students are expected to attend every class. We advise students to contact their professors directly (preferably before missing a class) to make arrangements to accommodate their illness, if necessary. The Student Health Service cannot vouch for past or present illnesses, either for you or for your professor. As an emerging adult, we believe you, and feel strongly that your professors do as well.

Procedure:

Verification of medical illness notes are not given to document visits to the Student Health Service.  If it is anticipated that a student may be absent from classes for an extended period of time (three days or more), the Student Health Service Staff may notify the Office of Student Life upon student approval. Faculty/Staff are encouraged to call The Office of Student Life at 419-372-2843 to verify a student’s absence from class.

      Helpful Links: 

Copies of this procedure may be given to the student upon request. In no way does a copy of this procedure exempt the student from class without approval from the professor.

This procedure has been reviewed and approved by the Health Service Advisory Committee (a Faculty Senate standing committee), the Student Affairs Advisory Board (a Faculty Senate standing committee), and Dr. Edward Whipple, Vice President for Student Affairs.
