A more thorough explanation:

The Buckley Amendment, also known as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), is a law that sets rules for how schools and colleges can handle and share student records.

For example, if you're a student, FERPA gives you the right to:

• See your own educational records
• Request that your records be corrected if they're wrong
• Control who else can see your records

FERPA also requires schools to get your permission before sharing your records with most third parties, like potential employers or other schools.

Overall, the Buckley Amendment is meant to protect your privacy and give you more control over your educational records.
