Personal privacy and access to information on a college campus - a preliminary-report
Abstract
A survey of college students concerning their knowledge and attitudes towards informational privacy was conducted. Virtually all subjects surveyed considered their personal privacy to be important to them. However, the survey results suggest considerable misunderstanding and misinformation regarding informational privacy. In addition, students showed little faith that their personal information was being securely protected against unauthorized disclosure. Indeed, they seemed to expect a considerable measure of privacy violation with respect to their student records.
