Arizona State University seems to be running pretty free with the release of information about Kyle Rittenhouse, including his admission status, the types of classes he’s taking, his college, and his enrollment status. Now some of those items are included in the ‘may release’ category known as Directory Information. So they might be partially covered.
However, unless their internal policies allow for the release of this information for ANY student, they might have a problem. They do have a form for the Release of what they call Public Records but if they aren’t treating all students’ information the same there could be an issue…..
The University of Arizona designates the following items as directory information:
Student’s name*
Local/Residence Hall address*
Home and/or Cell telephone numbers*
Official university email address*
College
Class standing/Classification
Academic program (degree, major, minor)
Dates of attendance
Status (full or part-time registration)
Degree(s) received
Honors and awards received
Participation in officially recognized activities
Weight and height of members of athletic teams
*The noted (*) items above can be specifically restricted by the student through UAccess. It is the University employee’s responsibility to make sure there are no directory restrictions prior to releasing any student data.
