It doesn't to me...

> student
> ----------------
> student_id
> name
> age
>
> address
> ---------------
> address_id
> street_name
> city
> state
> zip

What addresses are these? Random addresses where a student _might_ live?

> phone_num
> ------------------
> phone_num_id
> num
> extension
> type (cell, home, etc)
> primaryNumber (yes/no)

Again, random phone numbers possibily owned by a student?

>
> student_info
> -------------------
> student_id_FK
> phone_num_id_FK
> address_id_FK
>


If an "address" isn't any address, why doesn't it relate to a student?
