A federal privacy law, called the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974, prevents colleges from releasing information about accounts, financial aid, or student grade and scheduling records to anyone but the student.
The college has identified certain pieces of personal information that can be released to a third party without a student's expressed permission. You can read more about Lane's policies on the release of student records here.
If you wish to restrict* or release your directory information, here is a step-by-step page on how to do it
1) Login to ExpressLane, Click on the "myEnrollment" tab:
2) In the "Student Records" menu, click on "Student Information Release"
