Steps to Reproduce:

Explanation Hyphenated names are valid names for potential users of the system (or names with '/' character, such as names with S/O or D/O), so restricting this input might not allow complete tracking of all students.

Suggestion for Improvement Including hyphens or slashes (and other valid characters that can be in names) in the validation regex for student names.
