What this law does
Rule 3356-8-04 of the Ohio Administrative Code governs the confidentiality of educational records at Youngstown State University and provides processes for students and parents to access their records. University employees are not permitted to access, utilize, share or copy student educational records for their personal use.
Each university unit must keep a record of requests and disclosures of student education records, except when the request is from the student, a university official with a legitimate educational interest, someone requesting directory information, or related to a request with consent from the student. Employees or agents of the university may not require a student to waive the right of access to confidential recommendations for receipt of university benefits or services.
Consent for the release of education records must specify what is to be released, the reasons for release and to whom. The rule took effect . Section 3345.011 of the Revised Code defines a state university as a public institution of higher education that is a body politic and corporate, and recognizes Youngstown State University as a state university.
