1974, popularly known as the “Buckley Amendment” and carrying the
acronym “FERPA,” Pacific Lutheran University has adopted a policy to
protect the privacy of education records. This act also establishes the
rights of parents and currently enrolled, eligible students to inspect

correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal and formal
hearings. Parents and currently enrolled, eligible students will be
