Some disability related information is clearly medical in nature, and as such, must 如前所述,保密. Other disability related information might trigger negative connotations about the person with the disability. 残疾的人是一个结果 of HIV, seizure disorder or psychiatric illness, for example, deserve and expect to have their privacy protected by having this information handled in a highly confidential 的方式. The government statutes regarding persons with disabilities hold the promise that they will provide the same level of protection for any one individual, or class of individuals, with a disability than they do for another. 因此,既然有些 disability related information must be guarded closely, keeping all such information equally protected is a conservative, safe and legally acceptable practice.

What does this mean for Solano College?

DSP is assigned the responsibility for collecting and holding disability related documentation 残疾学生.

The information regarding a student's disability should be shared by those who hold the documentation on a limited basis, and then only when there is compelling reason 对于这样的披露. 这 may mean sharing with faculty only the information that a student has a documented disability and need for accommodations. 在美国.S., Department of Justice has indicated that a faculty member generally does not have a need to know what the disability is, only that it has been appropriately verified by the office assigned this responsibility on behalf of the institution. 因此,教师 would have no legal right to demand access to the actual documentation, including testing scores, dates or names of professionals providing such documentation.

Administrators may have a need to collect data such as how many students are being served, nature of their disabilities and recommended accommodations. 在典型的 circumstances, however,y do not have a need for personally identifiable information about whom those students are for purposes of statistical or survey reporting. 一个 way to protect the confidentiality of students with disabilities is by being careful to see that their names do not appear on general listings that may be circulated throughout the 机构的社区 in other contexts.

Information regarding someone’s disability or their status as a person with a disability is sensitive and should be managed carefully. Interoffice correspondence regarding the needs of a student with a disability should not be placed in shared files without 密码保护. The same memo sent to a number of students with disabilities by computer with a multiple address listing, may lead to a violation of confidentiality by revealing the names of those students to each other.

But doesn't FERPA give faculty the right to more information?

在美国.S., Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, also known as the Buckley Amendment, provides faculty with access to educational information in institutional files regarding students with whom they are working. 残疾相关的 records provided by a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, or other recognized professional are not subject to free access under FERPA. The Act exempts such disability related records that are used for support of the student and are available only to service providers and other professionals chosen by the student.
