<p>I have been working with the notion of FERPA in mind every day since its inception. Most of the time as a Professor we think we don't have to worry about FERPA but when a parent wants to speak to you regarding a students grades ect we cannot talk to the parents unless there is a waiver on file. As a teacher or professor our first instinct is to talk to parents but think before you speak mentality is needed for sure.&#160;</p> <p>My thoughts about FERPA!</p> <p>Smatt</p>
