InCommon Federation Discussions About Online Student Services

[Ann West <>]

All,

InCommon is developing some recommended practices for attribute release, and 
LeRoy Rooker has given us a quote to help educate registrars and student 
services folks about federation in the context of FERPA.

We're now trying to determine how to promote LeRoy's quote (and the 
practices) and have worked with Peg O'Donnell of the  Campus Legal 
Information Clearinghouse  to incorporate it into their FERPA FAQ:
http://counsel.cua.edu/FERPA/questions/questions2.cfm#Directory (See second 
question under the Directory Information section.)

Do campuses routinely use this FAQ? Do they see it as a legitimate source of 
information? Are there other places where we should promote this?

Many thanks for your thoughts,
Ann
