Veterinary medicine student Ashley Hall recalls with frustration the day she had to bring her 6-year-old son to class so she could take an exam.
“That was not the best situation,” she said, adding that her son spent the length of the exam running around the classroom.
Hall, a student senator and vice president of the Graduate and Professional Student Assembly, is now working to alleviate some of the burdens students with children face, which she says include strict absence policies and a lack of resources for graduate and professional student parents.
