Get Big Brother out of our lives! We're practically a third world country in education and it is totally the fault of the Federal government and national teachers unions. Enough!

"The federal government is taking steps to make the data more secure, however."
Should read: "The federal government is taking steps to secure more data, however."

Pity the poor kids who get bad marks in the "Respects Rights of Others" box. They're doomed.

The Statists are looking to follow students for LIFE! How outrageous! Now government and employers are able to reach back into grammar school to collect data on potential employees.
For those naysayers, that think this information will not become public are just fooling themselves.

Wow all this data, and we can't get Obamas college grades. Amazing.

I would go for full academic transcript disclosure for, say, people running for or holding public office such as the Presidency. Let's see those college transcripts and financial aid information for President Barak Hussein Obama shall we. Or do only we peons have to fork over the information.

Access to records? Like GPA, papers read or written, etc.?
Oh, Barry would never go for that!

It would be nice if this could apply to all presidential candidates including the current White House incumbent.

The Soviet Union did this & then preprogrammed you to a Job Specific, which you couldn't get above or even change careers & because Health Issues is even more damaging to your future it is even worse then USSR. So we have surpassed Marxism, keep taking those Vaccines & eating that Big Agra & Fast Foods Folks for the program is to shorten life NOT expand it.....Your all have been programmed long ago since Agenda 21 took hold...We MUST get rid of the Useless Eaters so take your Meds. & watch TV & when your early death comes, don't worry we will make death as painless as we can...NWO needs LESS of You NOT More.
