The college’s Records Management Policy
is available at http://www.smith.edu/libraries/libs/archives/records.
Please also see the Code of Conduct - Accuracy
of Records and Reporting, Confidential Information,
and Compliance with Contractual, Grant, and Other Obligations for
additional information.
Access to and Release of Confidential Information
Some
employees have access to confidential information regarding the college or personal
data about faculty, staff, or students. Handling and maintaining the security of
such data is one of an employee’s most important
responsibilities. Special care must be taken not to divulge or inadvertently reveal
confidential information to anyone, including over the telephone.
An employee should never release any confidential
information without clearance from her or his department head. Questions regarding
the release of confidential information should be directed to the department head,
or the Office of Human Resources.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
of 1974, as amended, sets forth requirements regarding the privacy of student records.
The purpose of the act is to give students and former students access to their
official records at the college, to provide an opportunity to correct inaccurate
or misleading statements and to ensure that records are not released to unauthorized
persons without the consent of the student. For further information, please visit www.smith.edu/registrar/privacy.php. |
