    prompt them that it's probably their child's high-school mascot and/or ask for other personal information to help identify the caller.

  • Q3
    A researcher calls and asks for directory information on our current class of students. I should,
    give them name, address, email address and majors as requested since this is directory information and may be released.
    refer the call to the Registrar's Office as they handle all requests for distribution of directory information.
    do not provide them any information as this is protected by FERPA.

  • Q4
    One of our faculty/staff member's niece is now a student in your class. This person wants to visit with you about how the student is doing because the student has been under a lot of personal stress from home. You...
    talk freely about how the student is doing since this is another faculty/staff member and automatically is allowed access to the information.
    share a limited amount of information since the person is clearly concerned for the educational well-being of this student, but doesn't directly have a need to know about your class.
    indicate to the person that although you will take special care to watch out for this student, that because he or she is not listed on the FERPA release and does not have an "educational need to know" that it would be best if the person talked directly to their niece about how she's doing.
