• utilize local, state, and federal websites to gather material about specific legal issues facing higher education institution;.

• determine the actual “threat” to the institution and the most logical person or team to address the “threat;”

• articulate implications of local, state, and federal mandates and develop campus programs and procedures to prepare for action rather than reaction to situations.

Emergency Situations and FERPAFERPA

Page 7: Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet?€¦ · Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet? Presented by: Eddie Pawlawski, Cumberland University April 2, 2014, 10:30—11:30 Session ID W3.1846

FERPA• FERPA limits the disclosure of information from student “education records,” a

term that the law defines quite broadly and that is not limited to “academic” records. “Education records” include virtually all records maintained by an educational institution, in any format, that are “directly related” to one or more of its past or present students. A record is “directly related” to a student if it is “personally identifiable” to the student, and a record is “personally identifiable”

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

of its past or present students. A record is “directly related” to a student if it is “personally identifiable” to the student, and a record is “personally identifiable” to a student not only if it expressly identifies the student on its face but also if the student’s identity could be deduced from the demographic, descriptive, or other information the record contains, either alone or in combination with other publicly available information. Thus, “education records” include not only registrar’s office records, transcripts, papers, exams and the like, but also non-academic student information database systems, class schedules, financial aid records, financial account records, disability accommodation records, disciplinary records , and even “unofficial” files, photographs, e-mail messages hand-scrawled Post-it notes, and records that are publicly available elsewhere or that the student himself/herself has publicly disclosed.

Emergency Situations

• Although it fortunately is still rare, a student’s statements or behavior sometimes may raise concerns regarding the safety of the student or others. To prevent such harm from occurring, college and

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

prevent such harm from occurring, college and university administrators, faculty, and staff who become aware of such statements or behaviors may want to tell someone else – another campus employee, a parent, an outside health care professional, a law enforcement officer, or those with whom the student may interact – about what they know or believe.

Emergency Exemption

• FERPA’s health or safety emergency provision permits such disclosures, without the consent of the parent or eligible student, if necessary to protect the health or

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

eligible student, if necessary to protect the health or safety of the student or other individuals. See 34 CFR §§ 99.31(a)(10) and 99.36.

Emergency Exemption

• “The phrase “articulable and significant threat” means that if a school official can explain why, based on all the information then available, the official reasonably believes, for instance, that a student poses a significant threat, such

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

for instance, that a student poses a significant threat, such as a threat of substantial bodily harm to any person, including the student, the school official may disclose personally identifiable information from education records without consent to any person whose knowledge of the information will assist in protecting a person from threat.”

Emergency Exemption• While the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act

(FERPA) generally requires parents or eligible students to provide educational agencies and institutions with written consent before the school discloses personally

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

written consent before the school discloses personally identifiable information from a student’s education records, FERPA allows schools to make necessary disclosures without obtaining prior written consent in order to address emergencies.

Emergency Exemption• FERPA does not prohibit a school official from

disclosing information about a student that is obtained through the school official’s personal knowledge or observation and not from the student’s education

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

observation and not from the student’s education records. For example, if a teacher overhears a student making threatening remarks to other students, FERPA does not protect that information from disclosure (under 34 CFR § 99.31).

Emergency Exemption• This exception does not authorize “knee-jerk” or

(in most cases) “broadcast” disclosures, but a limited disclosure to a limited number of people, made on the basis of a good-faith determination in

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

made on the basis of a good-faith determination in light of the facts available at the time, and is highly unlikely to be deemed a violation of FERPA, even if the perceived emergency later turns out, in hindsight, not to have been one.

Emergency Exemption

• In general, and when reasonably possible, the initial disclosure should be made to professionals trained to evaluate and handle such emergencies,

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

trained to evaluate and handle such emergencies, such as campus mental health or law enforcement personnel, who can then determine whether further and broader disclosures are appropriate.

Emergency Exemption• In addition to the exceptions discussed above, FERPA

expressly permits the disclosure of information from a student's education records to officials of other institutions at which the student seeks or intends to enroll. To take

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

at which the student seeks or intends to enroll. To take advantage of this exception, the institution must either inform its students generally, in its annual FERPA notice, of its practice of doing so, or make a reasonable attempt to notify the individual student that it has done so. In either case, upon request, the institution also must provide the student with a copy of the disclosed records and give the student an opportunity for a hearing to challenge the content of the disclosed records.

Clery Act • The Clery Act requires educational institutions to maintain crime

statistics, disclose security policies to current and prospective students and staff, issue timely warning when there is a potential for unsafe conditions and notify students of the availability of counseling and mental health services, and offer basic rights for victims and alleged perpetrators of sexual assaults on campus.

Harm to Self, Title II and Recent Clarifications

• Involuntary medical withdrawals are a tempting option for colleges and universities in the wake of recent school shootings and the rise of suicidal behavior on campus.

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

shootings and the rise of suicidal behavior on campus.

• These withdrawals are fraught with legal and policy difficulties that have the potential to harm both the student and the university.

• There are key issues related to these withdrawals and alternative paths to consider.

Page 23: Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet?€¦ · Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet? Presented by: Eddie Pawlawski, Cumberland University April 2, 2014, 10:30—11:30 Session ID W3.1846

Harm to Self, Title II and Recent Clarifications

• Following the Title II change in March of 2011, the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) has narrowed the language regarding the removal of students from “threat to self and

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

regarding the removal of students from “threat to self and others” to “threat to others.”

• In effect, it shifts an institution’s ability to remove students from campus who are suicidal, psychotic, or experiencing another severe mental health episode through the involuntary medical withdrawal policy.

Page 24: Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet?€¦ · Lawsuit!!! Got Your Attention Yet? Presented by: Eddie Pawlawski, Cumberland University April 2, 2014, 10:30—11:30 Session ID W3.1846

Harm to Self, Title II and Recent Clarifications

As a result of the change in language in Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the revised

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the revised regulation now deems it unlawful to take adverse action (i.e. involuntarily separate, suspend or expel) towards a student solely on the basis of self-harmful or suicidal behaviors.

Understanding ADA Accommodations Policy as it Pertains to a Suicidal Student

Brett A. Sokolow, Esq., Managing Partner, NCHERM:

• “Section 504 gives recourse to students who are discriminated against on the basis of a recognized

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

discriminated against on the basis of a recognized disability. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) entitles students who are otherwise qualified to participate in the programs and activities of college to reasonable accommodations once they seek qualification with the campus disability services office...”

Understanding ADA Accommodations Policy as it Pertains to a Suicidal Student

• “Suicide and its attendant psychological distress is a qualified disability under both ADA and Section 504. The ADA requires that we provide reasonable accommodations

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

ADA requires that we provide reasonable accommodations to an otherwise qualified suicidal student.”

• “Neither law requires that a suicidal student march into the disability services office to qualify as disabled. Once suicidality is clear to college officials, our obligations under these laws are in effect.”

Service Animals (narrowing definition 3/15/2011):• Service Animals. The rule defines "service animal" as a dog that

has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability. The rule states that other animals, whether wild or domestic, do not qualify as service animals. Dogs that are not trained to perform tasks that mitigate the

AACRAO - Denver 2014 Session ID: W3.1846

animals. Dogs that are not trained to perform tasks that mitigate the effects of a disability, including dogs that are used purely for emotional support, are not service animals. The final rule also clarifies that individuals with mental disabilities who use service animals that are trained to perform a specific task are protected by the ADA. The rule permits the use of trained miniature horses as alternatives to dogs, subject to certain limitations. To allow flexibility in situations where using a horse would not be appropriate, the final rule does not include miniature horses in the definition of "service animal."

separate provision about miniature horses that have been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. “
