Section 3345.601 | Student records preservation plans.
Each state institution of higher education, as defined in section 3345.011 of the Revised Code, annually shall certify to the chancellor of higher education, on a date and in the form and manner determined by the chancellor, a plan to preserve student records indefinitely if the state institution was to cease operations. The plan shall include the designation and signed confirmation of an official custodian of student records. If the chancellor determines it necessary, the chancellor may require a state institution to produce an executed agreement with the designated custodian of student records, paid in full, to ensure the state institution's plan can be implemented.
The chancellor may consult with the higher learning commission, the state board of career colleges and schools, and other appropriate entities to establish plans, processes, and procedures for state institutions to provide indefinite access to student records.
