Good morning MACRAO friends,
This subject keeps popping up, and with new hires coming on campus and sharing their past experiences, I’m wondering…am I being overly protective of our students and FERPA. Please share some insight on how your institutions handle faculty advisors and access to student academic information. Currently at FVCC, faculty advisors only have access to academic records of students they advise. Do other institutions allow faculty advisors open access to all students’ academic records regardless of whether they have a legitimate reason to view their records or not? Your thoughts and guidance are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sharon
