Privacy of Student Records - FERPA
Students have the right to request that records be kept private. Within
PeopleSoft, a student record marked as private will be displayed with a FERPA
button at the top of the window.
FERPA, or The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (commonly known as the
Buckley Amendment) establishes a ‘right to privacy’ for student academic records.
In general, the student, and only the student, can have access to the student’s academic
records. University employees who have an “educational interest” may also have access.
This can be frustrating for parents, but is firmly established in law. The law also
establishes a small number of exceptions (response to court subpoenas in limited
circumstances, for example). These exceptions are dealt with and documented by the
Office of the Registrar.
The law defines a set of directory information that universities may release if the student
does not request otherwise.
Directory information includes:
 Name
 Address
 Telephone number
 Birth date
 Major
 Degrees and official awards
 Participation in official activities and sports
 Weight and height of athletic team members.
Under the law, each student may request that directory information be withheld. The
university honors that request by marking the records in PeopleSoft. In recent years,
many students request protection from disclosure under FERPA as a result of stalking and
other criminal victimization. Students who have requested that directory information be
withheld are not listed in Frog Calls, on WEB pages, or in any fashion that might become
available outside direct educational interests of the university.
Failure to follow FERPA may result in both institutional and individual liability. Individuals
who fail to follow FERPA will be subject to discipline and possible termination.
