It's supposed to be on a "need to know" basis. For example, if I saw a cute guy here at work, knew he had gone here, and looked him up out of curiousity for grades or address or whatever, I have violated FERPA law. If that guy were a student and I had to check eligibility for whatever reason, I am well within legal boundaries.
