Bill > H2758

This bill aims to make records created or received by special state police officers at educational institutions public records, with certain exceptions. Specifically, it amends existing laws to ensure that law enforcement records made or received by these officers, who are appointed for colleges, universities, or other educational institutions, are considered public records unless they fall under specific exemptions outlined in other laws or are classified as "education records" under federal law (20 U.S.C. § 1232g(a)(4)), which protects student privacy. These public records will be maintained by the law enforcement unit of the respective educational institution, and the bill also clarifies the responsibilities of officials to ensure these records are properly kept and accessible, aligning with public records laws.
