[quote=Anonymous]We had both children sign the FERPA as a precondition to our paying full freight. We had to use it only once when SN DD was being humiliated by a professor. We took it to Disability Services and advocated for her. Disability Services intervened and spoke to the professor. The professor was in the wrong on a number of points and apologized. SN DD was so shattered by the experience that she wasn’t able to even process what had happened to her, much less advocate. I’m a lawyer familiar with Education issues and know that colleges hide behind FERPA because they don’t want to deal with parents. That’s why you need to have the waiver. If your child is attested or accused of a crime most colleges won’t even notify the parents. Same goes for admittance to a hospital.[/quote]
