FERPA

什么是FERPA?

FERPA代表1974年修订的“家庭教育权利和隐私法”. 它通常被称为FERPA，隐私法或巴克利修正案. 这是一项旨在保护教育记录隐私的联邦法律, to establish the right of students to inspect and review their educational records and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate and misleading data through informal and formal hearings.

FERPA允许释放特定物品，但不要求释放. 可能被释放的项目称为目录信息. 圣安东尼奥学院 has classified these items as directory information: student’s name, 出席日期, major, 分类, 注册状态(全日制或兼职), 曾就读的院校, 学位授予, 学术荣誉/奖项.

Students may place a directory hold on any or all of this information by completing the "Requst to Withhold or Remove Hold on Disclosure of Directory Information" form. 该表格可在我们的网站访问、填写和提交学生表格网站. After this information is entered into the system the student's information will be blocked.

Student information may not be released without a signed "FERPA Consent” form from the student. 该表格可在我们的网站访问、填写和提交学生表格网站. Items that can never be identified as directory information are a student’s social security number or institutional identification number, address, 电话号码, 出生日期, 种族/民族, 公民身份, 国籍, gender, grades, 平均成绩或课程表.

什么是学生的教育记录?

学生教育记录是除某些例外情况外的任何记录, 由一个或多个学生直接相关的机构维护的. 该记录可以包含学生的姓名, 或者学生的名字, 或者是学生个人的信息, 能被个人(单独)识别吗. 这些记录包括文件, 任何形式的文件和资料(手写), print, 监控屏幕, tapes, disks, film, microfilm, microfiche or notes) that contain information directly related to students and from which students can be personally identified.

如果你对信息是否可以发布有疑问，那就不要这样做. 请与学生档案办公室联系，电话:(210)212-5266或 sac-ar@masmke.com. They will help you determine if the information is an educational record and/or whether it may be disclosed without written consent. 为了安全起见，一定要想到书面同意.

什么是合法的教育兴趣?

合法的教育利益是指经授权的教育利益, or activity undertaken in the name of the college for which access to an educational record is necessary or appropriate to the proper performance of the undertaking. 这意味着如果一个学生被分配给你指导, 你有合法的教育兴趣，可以查阅他/她的记录. 如果一个好朋友让你告诉他他女儿的成绩，千万别告诉他. 这有两个问题. First unless this student is your advisee, you do not have a legitimate educational interest. Second if the student has not filed a FERPA Consent form granting SAC permission to share information with the parent, 家长无权获得这些信息.

由教员公布成绩

以学生的名字公开公布成绩, 院校学生编号, social security number or any portion of the number without the student’s written permission is a violation of FERPA. This includes posting grades to a class/institutional web site and applies to any public posting of grades for students taking distance education courses. 即使名字模糊不清, 数字学生标识符被视为个人身份信息. 按社会保险号码记分职系的做法, 学生身份证号或号码的任何部分违反FERPA. 通过明信片通知成绩侵犯了学生的隐私.

There is no guarantee of confidentially of sending grades via the internet outside of the 十大网赌正规网址官网区 system. The institution would be held responsible if an unauthorized third party gained access, 以任何方式, 通过任何电子传输方式传送学生的教育记录. 这个定义中的第三方可以是父母或监护人, 男朋友或女朋友, roommate, etc. 只有经过FERPA批准的安全网站才能访问成绩信息.

违反FERPA的处罚

The family policy compliance office reviews and investigates complaints of violations of FERPA. The penalty for violating FERPA is loss of all federal funding, including grants and financial aid.

专门针对教员的“不要”

为避免违反FERPA规则，请不要:

在任何时候使用社会安全号码, institutional identification number or any portion of the number of a student in a public posting of grades.
把一个学生的名字和那个学生的社会保险号联系起来, 在任何公共场合的机构识别号码.
Leave graded tests or papers in a stack for students to pick up by sorting through the tests or papers of all students.
Circulate a printed class list with student name and social security number/institutional identification number or grades as an attendance roster.
Discuss the progress of any student with anyone other than the student (including parents/guardians) without the consent of the student.
Provide anyone with lists of students enrolled in your classes for any commercial purpose.
Provide anyone with student schedules or assist anyone other than college employees in finding a student on campus.
