Student Information Disclosure Policy

Students are covered by a federal law called FERPA – which stands for “Family Education Rights and Privacy Act.” This law protects the confidentiality of certain information and records pertaining to students, including those at Seattle Central Community College. Unless the student consents (or a FERPA exception applies), Seattle Central is prohibited from disclosing to third parties information from a student’s education records.

Directory Information

FERPA permits colleges to define several types of student information as “directory information,” which Seattle Central may disclose to third parties without students’ consent (unless the student has requested in writing that the college NOT disclose directory information about that student).

  • Student’s name
  • Enrollment status in the college
  • Date(s) of enrollment
  • Area of study
  • Awards granted by the college
  • Participation in official sports activities
  • Weight and height of athletic team members, AND
  • Email address

Exceptions to the directory–information–only restrictions are: Judicial subpoena of records, upon condition that the college makes a reasonable effort to notify the student in advance of release of records. Emergency situations, if knowledge of personal information is necessary to protect the health or safety of a student or other person(s).

Public Records Request 

Seattle Central College is dedicated to the principles of open government and promotes an environment of transparency and cooperation. To submit a Public Records Request, please contact Seattle Colleges Public Records Manager. You will be notified once your request has been received. We strive to respond as quickly as possible to Public Records Request. However, depending on the complexity of the request, a longer time period may be needed to receive information.

Seattle Central College Logos and Brand Guide

A few tips on file usage:

  • The .eps files are best used for print. The png files are used for the web or on-screen viewing (i.e. email, etc.)
  • If you "double-click" or "File/Open" the files will open in Adobe Illustrator. If you want to use them in Word, Publisher, Outlook, InDesign, etc. you must: import > place > insert > picture from file or dragging into another document.
  • The white logos won’t show up unless you place them onto a darker background.
  • The eps (print) files can be enlarged as much as you want without any degradation. However, be sure to hold down the shift key while resizing or the logos will distort.
  • However, the png files are bitmap images and are set up large enough for most on-screen viewing purposes. They can be enlarged a small amount (15-20% max), but they will start to look blurry and pixelated if they are enlarged any more than that. (For the most part, they are large enough to fill most screens entirely without extra enlargement.) Once again, if resizing, it is essential to hold down the shift key or the logo will distort.
