  • Without Consent an Analysis of Student Directory Information Practices in U.S
    Without Consent An analysis of student directory information practices in U.S. schools, and impacts on privacy by Pam Dixon data visualization: John Emerson editing: Robert Gellman embargoed draft Without Consent: An analysis of student directory information practices in U.S. schools, and impacts on privacy World Privacy Forum www.worldprivacyforum.org © Copyright 2020 Pam Dixon, Author; Robert Gellman, Editor Cover and design by John Emerson All rights reserved. EBook/Digital: ISBN: 978-0-9914500-1-5 Publication Date: April 2020 Nothing in this material constitutes legal advice. Brief Summary of Report If data is the new oil, then student data is among the most desirable data wells of all. While some states have enacted laws to better protect students and their privacy, policymakers have left a formidable front door open: that is, the ability for detailed student information to be made public by schools un- der an exemption in the federal student privacy law, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. This exemption is called the Directory Information exemption. When schools choose to, they can designate certain student information of their choice to be made public without prior consent. This information becomes directory information. To provide a balance, Congress provided a right that stu- dents and parents can restrict unconsented public disclosure of their directory information. Eligible students can place this restriction on their directory information by submitting an opt out request at the school. Parents or guardians of students under 18 will have to place the restriction for the student. This right to restrict disclosure is an essential one, but students, parents and others may not be aware of the importance and profound privacy impact of this information.

I Hate it Here shows us characters dealing with less-than-ideal circumstances in the world and in their lives. To what degree was the plot inspired by the events of 2020? I Hate it Here isn't set in one particular year, but it's very much locked into the mindset of "where were you when everything started to fall apart?" So, the show is able to touch on stuff that's incredibly funny and random, or very serious and literal.
