On Friday, Dec. 1,  starting at 9 AM the US Department of   Education and the Federal Trade Commission will hold a full day workshop on student privacy and the gaping holes in FERPA and COPPA.

Rachael Stickland of the Parent Coalition for Student Privacy will be speaking on two of the four panels.  One of the panels will also feature David Monahan of the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood, an organization that is a member of our coalition and a valued ally.  You can watch the livestream at the link above.

We also submitted comments earlier, in collaboration with the CCFC and the Center for Digital Democracy, posted here and below. See other interesting comments  here.
