OTC From the Field: An Aid Director’s Experience With Data Sharing
This week on "Off The Cuff," Justin is joined by longtime financial aid professional Mary Sommers, director of financial aid at the University of Nebraska, Kearney, to walk through her experience sharing student data and to discuss how schools should be thinking about these requests. Mary and Justin dive deep into the potential pitfalls regarding student privacy as it comes to data sharing. Owen then breaks down the latest higher education news, headlined by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y.) latest comments on student loan forgiveness and a recent announcement from the Department of Education that it would be reviewing and improving its verification model.
