Unauthorized Recordings of Classroom Proceedings

Students are not permitted to record classroom lectures or discussions without either the express written approval of the faculty member teaching the course or an accommodation through the Student Accessibility Services (SAS).  Qualified students with disabilities that impact their ability to take or read notes may receive an accommodation through the SAS office that permits them to record lectures for their personal academic use. If the SAS office determines that recording lectures and classroom discussions is an appropriate accommodation for a student, the recording may be used only for personal academic purposes. 

Neither authorized student-initiated recording nor any faculty-initiated recording may be made available to anyone outside of the students enrolled in the class in any fashion, including but not limited to posting online, email, or through other media without the express written consent of the faculty member responsible for the course. Unauthorized dissemination of any recorded classroom proceedings, including but not limited to distribution for compensation, is strictly prohibited. 

Professors or students who believe that a student or classmate is recording classroom proceedings or using recordings made by the professor either without the professor’s consent or in violation of the specified terms of the agreed-upon academic accommodation plan will submit an incident report through the Provost's office for review and final determination of whether to bring student conduct charges.
