Good morning, and happy Friday!
Our graduate assistants are classified as exempt. Our HR Compensation department says they have a student relationship with the University, rather than an employment relationship.

Good Morning,
How does your institution classify Graduate Assistants, exempt or non-exempt? These would be graduate students
not conducting research or teaching but receiving a tuition waiver. I will be happy to share the results when all have answered.
Thank you!
