The University of Iowa (UI) is the state of Iowa's flagship institution; a public research one, division one university in the Big Ten Conference (B1G) with twelve colleges. One hidden gem in the accomplishments of the Office of the Registrar is UI's FERPA Team (UI-FT); a point of pride unknown to many but greatly appreciated by those who know the complexity of the regulation and its situation in the American higher education landscape. Even though to some it may feel like it has been here forever, FERPA, sometimes referred to as the Buckley Amendment, was signed into law in 1974; nearly every institution of higher education in the United States was impacted by it. UI-FT's mission is to support the campus community as an institutional resource for FERPA regulation training, guidance, policy interpretation, and protocol. It aims to provide consistent, reliable information and data while protecting student privacy and educational record security via accessible and timely service with integrity. UI-FT's structure supports a flexible framework with clear expectations to produce effective results.
