Lane Community College is required to provide for the identification, detection, and response to patterns, practices, or specific activities (“Red Flags”) that could indicate identity theft of students when Lane Community College serves as a creditor in relation to its students.  When applicable, the President is directed to develop procedures to implement an Identity Theft Prevention Program (ITPP) to control reasonably foreseeable risks to students from identity theft.

Board Policies are adopted by the Lane Community College Board of Education and establish the College’s governing principles and institutional direction. These policies are reviewed by the Board at least every five years or more often as needed. Board Policies are distinct from College Operating Policies and Procedures (COPPS), which provide operational guidance and are developed through governance processes and by responsible managers.
