Students’ Right to Non-Disclosure of Directory Information

While FERPA allows institutions to release students' directory information without their written consent, the law also requires that institutions provide the option for students to request that their directory information not be released.

为了保护他们的目录信息，学生必须提交FERPA保密表格，也称为保密块。 新葡京app employees can direct students to the Non-Disclosure Form seen 下面.

披露与不披露

学生们应该仔细考虑是否要对自己的档案进行保密。 不披露防止机构发布任何指定学生的目录信息，包括学生自己通过电话。 This can make a student's access to their own records more difficult, and can prevent enrollment verifications, reference checks, 新葡京app verifications and similar issues that arise with hiring processes, 新葡京app school admissions, scholarship applications and other common situations both during college and after graduation.

Students who choose to invoke their right to non-disclosure of directory information often do so for serious reasons, including for their personal safety, so employees should take care to look for a 保密块 on each student's record before providing any directory information.

保密块协议

To protect students' privacy and safety, employees must check a student's record every time they receive a request for directory information. If students have invoked their right to non-disclosure of directory information, a 保密块 is placed on their student record across WSU systems. 机密块可以在韦伯州立系统的多个学生信息屏幕中显著显示，包括横幅，CatTracks，教师仪表板，顾问仪表板和非官方成绩单。

在保密的情况下，员工不应该透露任何关于学生的信息。 员工不应该说任何可能表明这个人是韦伯学生的话。

Incorrect: "There is a 保密块 on this record."

Correct: "I have no information on that individual."

保密封锁阻止了韦伯州立大学的雇员通过电话发布任何信息，即使是对调用保密封锁的学生。 If a student has a 保密块, employees should communicate 只有 with the student in person after checking a photo ID or 新葡京app the student's Wildcat email account.

学校官员之间的数据发布

保密屏障并不妨碍新葡京app员工出于官方目的在机构办公室和部门之间共享学生数据。 FERPA保护学生记录，但并不意味着阻止大学内部的员工为了完成他们的工作职责而访问和处理学生记录，即使学生已经通过保密阻止行使了不披露的权利。

FERPA allows an institution to share non-directory information internally between school officials without students' prior written permission when a legitimate 新葡京app interest exists. 学校官员 是大学聘用的从事行政、监督、学术、研究或支持工作的个人。 这类人员包括执法人员和保健人员； 它还包括当选为董事会成员的个人。
