A log or record shall be maintained for each student's record which lists all persons, agencies, or organizations requesting or receiving information from the record and the legitimate interests therefor. The listing need not include any of the following: (a) Students to whom access is granted pursuant to Section 76230. (b) Parties to whom directory information is released pursuant to Section 76240. (c) Parties for whom written consent has been executed by the student pursuant to Section 76242. (d) Officials or employees having a legitimate educational interest pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 76243. The log or record shall be open to inspection only by the student and the community college official or his or her designee responsible for the maintenance of student records, and to the Comptroller General of the United States, the Secretary of Education, an administrative head of an education agency as defined in Public Law 93-380, and state educational authorities as a means of auditing the operation of the system. 76223. Any community college may make a reasonable charge in an amount not to exceed the actual cost of furnishing copies of any student record; provided, however, that no charge shall be made for furnishing (1) up to two transcripts of students' records or (2) up to two verifications of various records of students. No charge may be made to search for or to retrieve any student record. 76224. (a) When grades are given for any course of instruction taught in a community college district, the grade given to each student shall be the grade determined by the instructor of the course and the determination of the student's grade by the instructor, in the absence of mistake, fraud, bad faith, or incompetency, shall be final. (b) No grade of a student participating in a physical education class, however, may be adversely affected due to the fact that the student does not wear standardized physical education apparel where the failure to wear such apparel arises from circumstances beyond the control of the student. 76225. Whenever a student transfers from one community college or public or private institution of postsecondary education to another within the state, appropriate records or a copy thereof shall be transferred by the former community college, or college or university upon a request from the student. However, the community college, college, or university from which the student is transferring may notify the student that the student's records will be transferred upon payment by the student of all fees and charges due the community college, college, or university. Any community college, college, or university making a transfer of these records shall notify the student of his or her right to receive a copy of the record and his or her right to a hearing to challenge the content of the record. The board of governors may adopt rules and regulations concerning transfer of these records to, from, or between colleges under its jurisdiction.
