For example, the last day of term 1, for omission from the directory for term 2 and future terms, unless otherwise notified.

• Officials disbursing financial aid
• Parents of a dependent student (for tax purposes)

Student records are available to the above with the stipulation that this information is only for the use of the above unless written consent is secured from the student. Student records may not be distributed to other parties. It is the responsibility of each office maintaining records to keep a log that verifies the name and date of each person who has viewed the record and for what reason. Students have the right to see this log. A student may sign a waiver of access to confidential recommendations for the graduate nursing program or for employment purposes. However, the student must be kept informed of those people providing recommendations.

GRADUATE NURSING PROGRAM ACADEMIC REGULATIONS AND POLICIES

Statement on Intellectual Property Ownership

Kentucky State University is a community of learning dedicated to teaching, research, and scholarship; and Kentucky State University strongly encourages the creation and dissemination of learned and aesthetic accomplishments, including copyright-protected works; and the evolution of technology, pedagogy, curricular development and higher education practice requires that the School of Nursing examine the issue of copyright ownership in the academic community; and Research into the effectiveness of instructional technologies and new curricula are evolving at too rapid pace to permit full anticipation and articulation of policy which can be mechanically and unambiguously applied to every situation. This Statement is intended to articulate both a framework for understanding ownership of intellectual property rights at Kentucky State University School of Nursing, and the principles that shall guide those charged with evaluating ownership issues as they arise.
