FERPA:给学生的年度通知
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) guarantees that the academic records for students over 18 years old cannot be discussed with anyone except the student or authorized University personnel. 然而, certain information classified as “目录信息” is available for public consumption unless the student specifically directs that it be withheld. Public 目录信息 as defined by the act includes: student’s name, 地址(校园, 首页, 电子邮件), 电话清单, 照片, 出生日期和地点, 主修领域, 类一年, 参加官方认可的活动和体育运动, 运动员的体重和身高, 出席日期, 注册状态(e).g., undergraduate or graduate; full-time, 半场, 兼职), 度, 荣誉, 并获得了奖项, 以及最近就读过的教育机构.

FERPA affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. 它们是:
学生应向注册主任提交, 迪安, 学术部门的负责人, 或其他适当的官员, 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. If the records are not maintained by the University official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.
学生 may ask the University to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the University official responsible for the record, clearly identifying the part of the record that they want changed, 并说明为什么它不准确或具有误导性. 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. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the University in an administrative, 监督, 学术或研究, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the University has contracted (such as an attorney, 审计师, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, 比如纪律委员会或申诉委员会, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.

FERPA政策
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), 也就是巴克利修正案, requires that institutions of higher education strictly protect the privacy rights of all students who are or have been in attendance. 在实践中, this means that information contained in the student’s 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. 出于这些目的, “legitimate educational interest” shall mean an educationally related purpose that has a directly identifiable educational relationship to the student involved.
就FERPA而言, school officials are those members of an institution who act in the student’s educational interest within the limitations of their “need to know.” 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, 学院院长, 研究生院院长, 学生主任, 负责学术咨询的副院长, 学术进步主任, 管理研究生院院长, 以及职业研究学院院长. 在适当的地方, 这些学校官员可能, 由他们自行决定, choose to share such information with university faculty or staff on a need-to-know basis.
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. Public directory information as defined by FERPA includes: student’s name, 出生日期和地点, 地址(校园, 首页, 电子邮件), 电话清单, 照片, 主修领域, 出席日期, 类一年, 注册状态(e).g., undergraduate or graduate; full-time, 半场, 兼职), 参加官方认可的活动和体育运动, 运动员的体重和身高, 度, 所获荣誉及奖项, 最近参加的教育机构. 学校官员可以, 由他们自行决定, release directory information to third parties unless the student specifically directs that it be withheld.
The 注册处 is the keeper of all educational records and treats the student’s educational record with the utmost confidentiality. The University Registrar is responsible for all the educational records and will share non-directory information about individual students with other school officials only on a need-to-know basis.
All official records created by Clark faculty in fulfilling their professional obligations (e.g., 成绩 and comments on graded papers) are protected by FERPA. 由十大网赌平台教员保存的非正式记录(e.g., notes about meetings with students) that are kept under the sole possession of the faculty member, that have not been created with the assistance of anyone else, and that are accessible only to a temporary substitute do not fall under FERPA’s umbrella. Nevertheless, such informal records should be shared with third parties only on a need-to-know basis.
教师 who serve as academic advisers will have access to their advisees’ academic records. They will also be notified of any change in an advisee’s academic status. 在适当的地方, they will be informed of those actions of the College Board that relate to their advisees. All faculty will have access to a student’s class schedule for the purpose of overriding a registration restriction.
The Associate Dean of the College for Academic Advising may share a student’s educational record with members of the staff of the 学术咨询中心 when it is deemed appropriate for them to have such information in the execution of their duties.
The Dean of 学生 may share a student’s educational record with members of the Student Affairs staff when it is deemed appropriate for them to have such information in the execution of their duties.
FERPA does not apply to the records of applicants for admission who are denied acceptance to Clark, nor does it apply to applicants who are accepted but choose not to attend Clark. Admitted students are covered by FERPA once they have enrolled. 学生在上课的第一天被视为注册.
The Associate Dean of the College for Academic Advising will share information about the academic status of student athletes with the Director of 体育运动 for the purposes of ensuring NCAA compliance.
The Dean of 学生 may share judicial information with the Director of 体育运动 in support of the Athletic Code of Conduct. S/he may also share information of a serious nature about a student when it is relevant to that student’s status as an athlete.
教师 serving on university committees where legitimate “need to know” exists may have access to educational records. 教师 members of registered honor societies may have access to student educational records for the sole purpose of determining eligibility for membership on the basis that they are acting in an official university capacity that is integral to the educational function of the university. In both cases, the legitimate educational interests of students and the university have been served.
十大网赌平台 may share certain personally identifiable information with official agents. An official agent of the university is a person or organization performing a business function or service on behalf of the institution (a function or service that the institution normally would perform itself). All official agents of 十大网赌平台 have signed an agency agreement that stipulates that they will adhere to FERPA guidelines.
