FERPA, HIPAA, and Homeland Security all have different regulations. Some vendors must also comply with FERPA.

FERPA protects the student, and those rules apply even if the student is an employee. 

Institutions must be cautious about what they release to the public. It is best to obtain a student release.

The rules of sole possession are fascinating. FERPA is meant to protect the student and what constitutes an academic record. 

Students with disabilities are students with dreams, goals, and aspirations.  Explore the challenges and let them decide what path is most realistic for them. 

Access and success are two entirely different things. Access is the institution's responsibility, while success is the student's.

Disabilities may not be as apparent as one thinks. You can't always judge a book by its cover. 

Accommodations must be provided where applicable. Rules differ for K-12 and higher education. 

Reach out to resources that are available as you contemplate copywriting regulations. 

Technology has allowed copywriter infractions to the point that too many people tend to ignore their responsibilities with copywriting protections. The digital world has changed the way we operate.
