As of July 2007, the Office of the CIO and the University Registrar will complete remediation of the printed Point-hour reports (1150702, 703, 704, 705, 706 & 707). The SSN will be replaced with the last eleven positions of students' name.# portion of their email addresses. Three categories of Point-hour reports are targeted: Quarter Point-hour report; Cumulative Point-hour report; and the Standing Based on Quarter and Cumulative Point-hour Ratios. Samples of these reports are available on the SSN Protection Project page.

Additional information regarding this initiative are available on the SSN Protection Project page.
