re: "Elimination of the 2011 sunset date on some specific exemptions to the California Information Practices Act for the CSU and UC."
fwiw ~ based on reading the Agenda information: the above appears to pertain to use of personal contact information by Alumni "Affinity" programs for marketing reasons.
As such it has very little relevance to the normal day-to-day practices of IT workers or most other University workers - except any whose jobs involve Alumni activity.
We considered it relevant because taking CSU classes is a benefit under our contract, and of course many employees were students even before becoming staff. Employees who have taken classes are alumni, and this law affects them.
Unfortunately, some employees/alumni have been unpleasantly surprised to find that their campus alumni office has released their personal information without their knowledge or consent.
