Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA)
Langston University makes every effort to comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (Buckley Amendment). This Act is designated to protect the privacy of the student’s educational records, to establish the student’s right to review and inspect his/her records, and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate information through informal and formal hearings. The policy permits disclosure of educational records under certain limited circumstances and routine disclosure, at the university’s discretion, of information referred to as directory information: name, local address, phone number, major, participation in sports, current and past class schedule, height, weight, degrees, honors, and major dates of attendance, and previous colleges attended. A student has the right to prevent the disclosure of directory information by filing a request in the Registrar’s Office on a form.
