College Student Working at College had no SS or Medicare Tax Withheld

[Brenda's Taxes]

My client's daughter was a junior in college in 2017 and had wages just over $20K working at the college in PA. They withheld federal and PA taxes, but did not withhold social security or Medicate taxes. Is this correct? Is she going to have to pay back the SS and Medicare taxes that were supposed to be withheld?

Many of these college jobs are not subject to Soc Sec and Medicare, so I agree, probably the W-2 is correct.
