126 Nova Southeastern University Student Handbook Nova Southeastern University hereby designates the following student information as public or directory information; such information may be disclosed by the institution for any purpose, at its discretion: • student name • local and home address • telephone numbers • email addresses • photo ID • major field of study • participation in sports • place of birth • dates of attendance • degrees, honors, and awards received • enrollment status • year in school • anticipated graduation date • photographs and video recordings taken in public places Please know, however, that Nova Southeastern University’s directory information policy is to never release this information to any third-party vendors. Release of Student Information A student can give consent to permit Nova Southeastern University to discuss and/or release personally identifiable information to a third party such as a spouse, a parent, a guardian, etc. Students can manage this consent in Self-Service Banner/SharkLink (nova.edu/roi). However, the university is under no obligation to discuss and/or release personally identifiable information from a student’s education record to a third party, except in limited circumstances under FERPA, or when legally compelled to do so. A student may also withhold directory information (as defined above) by completing the Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information Form. A student is warned, however, that some of the consequences of preventing disclosure of directory information may be undesirable: a student’s name will not be published on the Dean’s List or commencement program, and requests from prospective employers are denied, and the student cannot be communicated with over the telephone. The only legal means of communicating with a student who submitted a Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information Form is in person or through NSU email. Students may visit the registrar’s website at nova.edu/registrar/services/ferpa.html for more information about rights with respect to their education records. Conduct Notifications University personnel may use administrative discretion with parental or legal guardian notification, in writing and/or by phone, of a student younger than 21 years of age when violations of university alcohol or drug policies occur, or when a student’s health or safety is at issue.
