I am a recent graduate of the University of Oklahoma. I was just contacted by the university's bursars office regarding a remaining balance on my bursar account. I responded with a plan of action to get it paid off. Shortly after this correspondence, I received the same original email about my bursar account forwarded to me from my biological mother, Mrs. Karen Chambers. Mrs. Chambers is not, and has never been authorized to view any of my educational records, including my bursar records. Should I pursue this case legally?

FERPA like HIPPA lacks a private right of action. Even if you could find a violation you could legally pursue, however, what are your damages? The law can only provide orders that someone do or stop doing something, or monetary compensation for harm that can be measured in money. You don't seem to have any monetary harm. If you think you need an injunction and have the money to spend on it, sure, sue for one, in OK.
