Public Directory Information includes: student\u2019s name, addresses (campus, home, email), telephone listings, photograph, major field of study, class year, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, enrollment status (e.g., undergraduate or graduate; full-time, half-time, part-time), degrees, honors, and awards received, and the most recent previous educational institution attended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To request that directory information be withheld, please contact the Registrar\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FERPA affords students certain rights with respect to their education records.&nbsp;They are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>The right to inspect and review the student&#8217;s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access.<\/summary>\n<p>Students should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The University official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected.

They should write the University official responsible for the record, clearly identifying the part of the record that they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment.

First, the U.S. Comptroller General, the U.S. Attorney General, the U.S. Secretary of Education, or state and local education authorities (\u201cFederal and State Authorities\u201d) may allow access to records and PII without student consent to any third party designated by a Federal or State Authority to evaluate a federal- or state-supported education program. The evaluation may relate to any program that is \u201cprincipally engaged in the provision of education,\u201d such as early childhood education and job training, as well as any program that is administered by an education agency or institution. Second, Federal and State Authorities may allow access to education records and PII without student consent to researchers performing certain types of studies, in certain cases even when Authorities object to or do not request such research. Federal and State Authorities must obtain certain use-restriction and data security promises from the entities that they authorize to receive PII, but the Authorities need not maintain direct control over such entities. In addition, in connection with Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems, State Authorities may collect, compile, permanently retain, and share without student consent PII from education records, and they may track participation in education and other programs by linking such PII to other personal information obtained from other Federal or State data sources, including workforce development, unemployment insurance, child welfare, juvenile justice, military service, and migrant student records systems.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-light-gray-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" id=\"ferpa-policy\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FERPA Policy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), better known as the Buckley Amendment, requires that institutions of higher education strictly protect the privacy rights of all students who are or have been in attendance.&nbsp;In practice, this means that information contained in the student\u2019s educational record can be shared only with school officials who have a legitimate educational interest and a legitimate need to know such information to fulfill their professional responsibilities.&nbsp;For these purposes, \u201clegitimate educational interest\u201d shall mean an educationally related purpose that has a directly identifiable educational relationship to the student involved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>School Officials<\/summary>\n<p>For purposes of FERPA, school officials are those members of an institution who act in the student\u2019s educational interest within the limitations of their \u201cneed to know.\u201d The following people are defined as having a legitimate need for access to any educational record for students under their jurisdiction: the President and the Provost, the Dean of the College, the Dean of Graduate Studies, the Dean of Students, the Associate Dean of the College for Academic Advising, the Director of Academic Advancement, the Dean of the Graduate School of Management, and the Dean of School of Professional Studies.&nbsp;Where appropriate, these school officials may, at their discretion, choose to share such information with university faculty or staff on a need-to-know basis.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Directory Information<\/summary>\n<p>Directory information is general information contained in the educational record of a student that generally would not be considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if disclosed.
