A student has a right to dispute a grade or record even if the information is not changed in which a note of dispute would be included. Alumni records are not protected under FERPA? Student records cannot be destroyed if they are the process of an inspection or review. I found that if a student has not paid their fees that they can be denied a copy of transcripts but may view them only. Sadly, due to tragic events in the past laws like FERPA were created to protect students from violence, stalking or other risk factors to the student.
