Hi Jim,
Happy new year!

All EDUCAUSE GDPR resources can be found here:  
https://library.educause.edu/topics/policy-and-law/eu-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr

As to your specific question, I have read some materials that would lead me to believe the answer is "yes" to your 
question.  GDPR would apply to the data as it is transmitted from the EU to the US while the data subject (the student) 
is in the EU.  I would be curious to learn how other institutions are interpreting this as well.

Kind regards,
Joanna

Subject: [SECURITY] GDPR Question

Good Morning,

We have been having some discussions regarding what population's records are subject to GDPR.  The discussion centers 
around whether or not the records of US citizens that study abroad fall under GDPR.  Some say it's only those who are 
citizens of the EU.  Is there any guidance on this topic?

Thanks and have a great day.

Jim

Subject: [SECURITY] October 24 GDPR Webinar from Tambellini Group and EDUCAUSE

Good morning,
Many of us continue to struggle with understanding the scope and finer points of the EU GDPR and its application to US 
higher education institutions. To that end, EDUCAUSE and the Tambellini Group have been working together to share more 
information on this topic and we are pleased to announce an upcoming webinar that you may be interested in.

The jointly sponsored webinar will be held on Tuesday, October 24, 2017, from 1-2pm ET.  You can register for the 
webinar and read more about the webinar content here:

As GDPR questions have been coming up on our various EDUCAUSE lists, we have been sharing those questions with the 
Tambellini group so that they can be specifically addressed in the upcoming webinar.

Kind regards,
Joanna
