Students and the Media Earlham's Public Affairs Office is charged with sharing the story of Earlham with the public in a variety of ways. Hometown news releases about students' involvements and accomplishments are distributed to students' and parents' hometown media throughout the U.S. Last year Public Affairs produced and distributed nearly 5,000 of these releases, making many parents proud while building name recognition for Earlham. Guidelines associated with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) guide the College's release of information known as student "directory information." Public Affairs adds the names and contact information for hometown newspapers to each student's record in the College's database system. Please submit your Media Information Form, indicating the names and contact information for two newspapers where hometown releases about you may be sent, to Public Affairs by July 18. Withholding Directory Information Students may withhold directory information by filing a Non-Disclosure of Directory Information Form with the Public Affairs Office within the first two weeks of the Fall Semester. Requests for non-disclosure will be honored by the institution for only one academic year; therefore, authorization to withhold directory information must be filed annually in the Public Affairs office. For more information, please see the College's Non-Disclosure of Directory Information Policy. |
