Ferpa at GSU

INCORRECT. Although law enforcement may have a legitimate reason to know the whereabouts of the student, the attendance is part of the student's educational record, and must not be disclosed without prior consent. This would change if officer had a warrant or subpoena requiring access to these records.
 
General Rule Any requests by outside entities, and especially by law enforcement must be directed to the school's records office. Additionally, FERPA requires notification of the student, unless it is specifically stated on the subpoena that the student must not be notified.
