Protects student data from being sold or shared by colleges without consent
This bill would stop colleges from getting federal money if they share or sell students' personal information without their written permission. This includes details used to track voter registration or voting rates, and other personal records. This would give students more control over their private data.
Today, colleges can share certain "directory information" if students don't opt out, and there's no explicit federal ban on selling student data for voter tracking or general sale without consent. If this bill passes, colleges would lose federal funds if they share student personal data for voter tracking or sell any personal education records without the student's prior, informed, written consent.
