Opinion Letter No. 95-03
February 27, 1995
Student Academic Grievance Procedures and Code of Conduct
University of Hawaii records directly relating to
a student, including student disciplinary records, are
"education records" under the federal Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA"), and
subject to FERPA’s restrictions on disclosure without the
consent of the student. State and county
agencies need not comply with UIPA requirements when compliance
would be contrary to federal
restrictions concerning the disclosure of information. Therefore,
the University of Hawai‘i is not
required to disclose the University of Hawai‘i’s Student
Code of Conduct or Academic Grievance
Procedure records which directly relate to a student connected with
those proceedings.
