Class Excuse Policy:
The
Pat Walker Health Center will not give class excuses.
Explanatory Statement for Excuse Policy
The Pat Walker Health Center cannot release protected health information (which includes dates and times our services are utilized) due to federal HIPAA regulations relating to health care privacy. However, we do share in the common goal with the University of Arkansas to have students attend class in a good state of health. If an illness will prevent a student from attending classes for an extended period of time the Dean of Students will be notified with the student's permission.
However, students and faculty may find it useful to use the Absence from Class Form.*
( * Please Note: Furnishing false or misleading information to a member of the faculty, staff, student, or law enforcement official acting in an official capacity will result in disciplinary proceedings in accordance with section I.B.32 of the Student Code of Conduct.)
