- Shicheng Guo, Response.
- In this situation, I would have the student go back and have the employees at PUSH modify the slip to include the time. I don't particularly care for the reason which they visited PUSH, as the student may have a condition that they wish to keep private, so I don't think that needs to be included. As long as they can prove that they were actually at PUSH at the right time, I don't think anything else matters.
