SSN Policy administration

During 1999 the University of Illinois developed and adopted a formal policy on the collection, maintenance, and release of Social Security numbers. The policy was developed by a committee comprised of 27 individuals drawn from administrative and academic posts. A full list of the team members is available here. The policy was approved by the management teams of both Vice Presidents in November and December of 1999.

A Social Security Number Oversight Committee has been assigned to ensure the communication of this policy and to act as a resource for information or as a reference, should issues or concerns arise during day to day operations with Social Security number usage. The University's SSN policy applies to every campus comprising the University of Illinois. This oversight committee is composed of an administrator from each campus and University Administration, assigned by the Provosts and the Vice-President for Administration.
