Excerpt from Student Handbook 1999-00, University of Pittsburgh/Bradford, pages 10-11.
Written notification of professors regarding student absenteeism due to illness is provided by the Director of Health Services only when a student is hospitalized or has an extended illness requiring three or more consecutive days of absence or hospitalization.
Professors wishing to verify other cases of student absence due to illness or injury may call the Director of Health Services at 362-7631. Dates on which the student received care can be verified in this way; other health information is confidential. Written notification is not provided for individual classes missed due to illness.
