New Law Lets Students Stay on Parent's Insurance

Good news for college students. A law that was passed under the Bush administration became effective on Friday. It was coined "Michelle's Law", for a student who kept a full workload while battling colon cancer. It protects students who've left school for a serious medical condition from being taken off their parents health care. Students who go on a medical leave from school are allowed one year off.
