Where does Student beneficary report excess distribution from 1099q on parents return ?

[garyyoungs]

I am using the 1099Q and 1098T on my return in order to capture the credit.  TT states "Looks like your 1099-Q is taxable.  Based on the education expenses you've entered the student beneficiary must report $xxxx of taxable income from this distribution."  My question is how does he report that income?
