Conduct Records and Disclosure Policy
General Policy Regarding Disclosure of Conduct Records
After you have graduated from the university: We only disclose records of suspension or dismissal to entities outside the university community. If you have no record of suspension or dismissal, we will respond to inquiries as follows: "We only disclose records of suspension or dismissal post-graduation, and this student was neither suspended nor dismissed.”
While you are still a student at the university: See below for more information regarding whether we disclose records while you are a student and to whom.
Good Griffin Outcomes
Disclosure of Good Griffin Records to Outside Parties: Generally, the university does not release information regarding incidents to parties outside of the university community without your consent. The "university community" includes Residence Life, Study Abroad/Study Away, Student Orientation, and parents.
Parental Notification of Good Griffin Outcomes: If you have authorized the university to share information concerning student conduct actions with your parent(s) or guardian(s), we will notify the authorized party/parties of this resolution.
Student Conduct Outcomes
Disclosure of Records of Probation to Outside Parties: If requested by the student (e.g., when a student submits a Dean Certification Request), or if otherwise authorized by FERPA, the university will disclose records of incidents resulting in Primary Sanctions of Probation, Suspension, Resignation, or Permanent Dismissal.
For parties outside of the university community, the university generally does not release information regarding incidents without your consent. The "university community" includes Residence Life, Study Abroad/Study Away, and Student Orientation.
Parental Notification: If you have authorized the university to share information concerning student conduct actions with your parent(s) or guardian(s), we will notify the authorized party/parties of this resolution following the conclusion of the appeal period.
