SSN have been removed from class rosters, but since it contains student enrollment information, is the roster restricted?
According to FERPA, student enrollment information is classified as a restricted data element and should be protected accordingly, regardless of whether the SSN is still included. For a list of restricted data elements, refer to the BuckeyeSecure website Restricted Data Elements list. In addition, student enrollment information stored on CD, DVD, thumb drives and other portable devices must be encrypted, cleansed, or destroyed. Off-site back-ups containing this information must also be encrypted.
