Retention Policies

Class recordings will remain available through the timeframe indicated in the retention policies below. Throughout this timeframe, students can continue to access class recordings through the Canvas course space. 

FERPA Compliance

For information about student rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) please visit Notification of Student Rights Under FERPA.

Class recordings are subject to FERPA regulations when they include identifiable student participation. Recordings that feature only the instructor are not considered a student record and FERPA does not apply. If students (including TAs) are visible or audible, such as asking questions, giving presentations, or leading discussions and can be identified, the recording is considered a protected educational record and must comply with FERPA.

FERPA-Complaint Recording Restrictions:

  • Recordings may not be downloaded by students.
  • Recordings may not be shared outside of the course in which they were originally created.
