<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif">Another quick question. Are we expected to follow up in any way with students who check off an exemption? I know the college must follow-up with employees who check either of the two exemptions
(glad I'm not in HR), but hoping just a self attestation for students with no follow up necessary is our expected process. Am I correct in my assumption?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
