Plain-language change summary

The latest version of Bill HB 2132 has removed a section that allowed the council to share information about student enrollment with other entities, but only under a data-sharing agreement that limited further sharing. This change enhances privacy protections for students by ensuring that their information remains more secure and is not shared unnecessarily. Additionally, the definition of what constitutes an "application for state financial aid" has been clarified to include alternative applications that the council approves, which could help streamline access to financial support for students.
