CALEA Update: Higher Ed Reporting Due Dates AnnouncedCreated by Lisa Gesner (EDUCAUSE) on January 03, 2007
Due dates for the two reports that must be filed by higher education institutions that must comply with CALEA (the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act) have now been announced. One report is due on February 12, and the other on March 12. EDUCAUSE has updated its CALEA resource page to describe the reports and provide additional information for those who must file, using attorney Matthew A. Brill, who has consulted on this issue for higher education, for expert advice. It is important to note that not all institutions must file these reports. In fact, according to the earlier recommendations of ACE and EDUCAUSE most institutions do NOT have to comply with CALEA, and do NOT need to file the reports. EDUCAUSE suggests that member institutions’ primary representatives notify their presidents of this situation, since it is not recommended that an institution file the reports unless it in fact must comply with CALEA. For further information on the CALEA resource page. CALEA Update: Archived Recording of EDUCAUSE Web Seminar Now AvailableCreated by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on August 02, 2006
