Herb--

I would be surprised if the Hemings/Jefferson affair was taught to large groups of students.  Its just not that important, one way or the other.  I can say for a fact that no one at JMU gives it more than, at best, an off hand passing comment, in the US History survey classes we teach.  

All best,
