TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY ADDING SECTION 37-5-304 SO AS TO PROHIBIT THE NAME, ADDRESS, OR TELEPHONE NUMBER OF ANY STUDENT ENROLLED AT A PUBLIC OR PRIVATE COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY OF THIS STATE TO BE DISCLOSED WITHOUT PERMISSION TO ANOTHER PERSON OR ENTITY IF THAT PERSON OR ENTITY WILL USE THIS INFORMATION TO OFFER THE STUDENT A CREDIT CARD, DEBIT CARD, OR OTHER TYPE OF CREDIT ARRANGEMENT.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 37-5-304.

A college or university before forwarding the names, addresses, or telephone numbers of more than fifty of its students at one time to a person or entity at that person's request must first obtain a certification that the information requested if furnished will not be used to violate the provisions of this section."
