Who can know what information!
Family Education Rights & Privacy Act of 1974 (Buckley Amendment), particularly the following information:

- Students may request a restriction on the release of directory information by filling out a “Privacy Hold” form (must be renewed annually).
- Students or parents/guardians may request access to student information by completing a “Release of Information” form (must be renewed annually).
- All students taking courses at Utah Tech are protected under FERPA regardless of age. For example, parents do not have the right to access their child’s record even if the child is a minor.

Day 2 – Academic Policies and Procedures
Tricky Business!
A student has catalog rights for associate degree requirements, including General Education requirements, for four (4) years beginning with the date of matriculation into any degree program as long as he/she maintains continuous enrollment by completing at least one UT credit bearing course each academic year. The date of matriculation is not always the same as the date of first admission.
A student has catalog rights for baccalaureate degree requirements, including General Education requirements, for seven (7) years beginning with the date of matriculation into any degree program as long as s/he maintains continuous enrollment by completing at least one UT credit bearing course each academic year. The date of matriculation is not always the same as the date of first admission.
Students with previously earned degrees from non-Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) institutions who matriculate after July 1, 2010, must meet UT and the Utah Board of Regents minimum standards in American Institutions, English Composition, and Quantitative Literacy (Mathematics).
Canvas
Does your student know how to use it?
Canvas is an online system for you and your students to share information, assignments, and other materials that relate to your classes and their education. You could use Canvas for online courses as well as other departments including the LIB 1010 and CIS 1200. You can use Canvas as a supplemental resource for coursework by posting course syllabi, assignments, related documents, notes, videos, web links, and updated grades where student can assess the information in a user friendly way. Canvas also assists your students with a list of classmates in the courses so either you or your students can get in touch with each other throughout the semester for questions or even form study groups. Your individual login information for Canvas is the same as for your Dmail account as well as for the student. You and your students can access Canvas by clicking “Canvas” on the left side of the college’s website.
