Opinion Letter No. 93-02
May 26, 1993
UH Campus Law Enforcement Records
The OIP provided advice to the University of Hawaii
concerning the disclosure of records maintained
by the UH campus security unit, in light of amendments made by Congress
to the federal Family and
Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). These amendments clarify
that records created by a
campus law enforcement unit do not constitute "educational
records," the disclosure of which are
restricted by FERPA as a condition of federal funding. The OIP also
summarized a number of
previous opinions it had issued discussing the disclosure of records
or information compiled for law
enforcement purposes.
