Lecture Recordings

Lecture Recordings
Students may audio or video record a faculty lecture, defined as a planned presentation by a PBSC faculty member or instructor, during scheduled class times, delivered for the purpose of transmitting knowledge or information that is reasonably related to the pedagogical objective of the course in which the student is enrolled. Faculty are encouraged to let students know when the lecture portion of a class begins and ends. There are three permitted purposes for students making the recording:

(1) personal educational use, (2) for use in a complaint against the institution, or (3) for use as evidence in a civil or criminal proceeding. Students may not record for any other purpose without the consent of the instructor. Students are prohibited from recording classroom activities other than lectures, including but not limited to, class discussions, student presentations, labs, academic exercises involving student participation, and private conversations. Students are expressly prohibited from recording any other student’s image or voice. Recordings may not be used to engage in academic dishonesty and may not be published or shared in any way without the faculty member’s written consent. Publication is defined as showing or making available or distributing the recorded lecture by any means.
