  • Providing information about the conduct process, from beginning to end, and offering students the opportunity to give feedback regarding their experience in the conduct process.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

What is FERPA?

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law established in 1974 that gives students specific rights to access educational records and protects the privacy of these records. A student’s protection under FERPA begins when the student turns 18 or enrolls in a post-secondary institution. Under FERPA, an institution may not disclose or confirm information about a student’s educational records without their written consent. Prior consent is not required when the information is shared with University officials who have a legitimate educational interest in the student. A University official has a legitimate educational interest if the official has a "need to know” information from the educational record to fulfill duties, and only within the context of who serves on official institutional committees, and representatives of agencies under contract with the University.

As permitted under federal law, the sole exception to the above practice is the release of "directory" information considered to be public in nature and not generally deemed to be an invasion of privacy. Learn more about directory information and how to opt-out.

FERPA Waiver

The Office of Student Conduct cannot release disciplinary records to guardians, parents, spouses, faculty, advisors, coaches, graduate schools, potential employers, etc. without the written consent of the student. We encourage students to communicate with the appropriate parties, as they see fit.

To release disciplinary records to a guardian, parent, spouse, advisor, coach, graduate school, potential employer, etc., the student must complete the Student Consent for Release of Education Record Information form in person in the Office of Student Conduct and must be free of duress or coercion. Upon receipt of this form, information will be released to the designated person(s) unless rescinded by the student in writing.
