Restrictions on Access
Most of the collection does not have access restrictions; however, due to the presence of personally identifiable information (PII) related to students, review must occur before access is granted for Box 8. Access to student information is open only to the student in question and to Colorado State University employees. However, access to others will be granted upon having written consent from the student or providing written proof that the student is deceased. Other boxes requiring review due to potential PII include Boxes 1, 7, 11, 36 (4 USB flash drives). The collection is stored off-site so advance notice is required.
