Disclosure of Directory Information
When an entry in the on-line directory is suppressed, the only information that is publicly available is the alias field and the e-mail field (if available). This means that:
- A search for you by name will return no match.
- A search for you by alias will return the email field (if available).
*NOTE: If you request FERPA suppression, you may also want to change your on-line directory default alias since the alias is based on your first name initial and your last name.
