I request there be an option to add a second primary email address. This would be helpful to aid incoming freshman adjust to responsibility. Their Mommies could get access to all the correspondence their children receive. It could be sent to expire or something.

Dr. Danuta Twardowska-Case The need to include the incoming students' parents in the communication is VERY BIG right now. Many HS graduates don's check emails and important communication, including info about late fees, is not looked at. Parents, who usually pay the fees, are not happy about it. Many colleges started sending emails to parents, especially re expenses and financial deadlines. Having an option of CCing the parents from Populi (as a group) would be awesome. Please add this feature to Populi!

Andee Spitzke The ability to set multiple primary email addresses would be helpful, especially if students wish their parents to also receive email communications or if the student wants the emails delivered to multiple accounts.

Dave Pedotto Is there a way I can send the scheduled communications emails to more than one address per lead?
I'd like to include parents and prospective students in these mailings. See Adam Kee for example.

Jonetta Kiessling This would be a great feature. We send some emails to both a students home email as well as their new school email address. It would be nice to not have to remember the copy/paste of their emails when we do. Also, when someone inquires (using their "junk mail" email) and later starts an application (with the email the regularly check), we send emails which we sometimes later find out they never saw.

Evan Donovan Would cc'ing parents automatically have any FERPA implications?
-
Dr. Danuta Twardowska-Case Yes, it would. We are allowed ONLY to share info with parents who claim the students as a dependent on their taxes. If they don't, unless the student signs a consent, we are NOT allowed to share his educational record (including financial information). Therefore, even age cannot be used as a criterion. It really varies.

Evan Donovan Makes sense. So this couldn't be a default, then - it would have to be something that we would manually set based on having received a consent. That was my understanding.
