Privacy Policy
It is the policy of the Commonwealth of Virginia that personal information about citizens will be collected only to the extent necessary to provide the service or benefit desired; that only appropriate information will be collected; that the citizen shall understand the reason the information is collected and be able to examine their personal record that is maintained by a public body.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, Section 438, Public Law 90-247, as amended, sets forth requirements governing protection of students’ rights to privacy in their education records and affords them a right to inspect such records. A copy of this act is on file in the Learning Resources Center.
The College may disclose personally identifiable information from a student’s education records. Such information, known as directory information, includes the student’s name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, major field of study, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, and previous colleges or institutions attended by the student. This information may be disclosed by the College without the prior consent of the student unless a written request is made to the Coordinator of Admissions and Records before such time as the College is asked to make such disclosure. In any case, the College may disclose directory information from the education records on an individual who is no longer in attendance at the College. Students having questions pertaining to this act may direct inquiries to the Director of Student Development.
