A Day in the Life of Pebbles Flintstone!

Pebbles Flintstone, a current sophomore, approaches your desk. She tearfully reports that her parents, Fred and Wilma, have decided to divorce. It all came about when Pebble’s father ran away with Wilma’s best friend Betty. Poor Barney!

In the court settlement, Wilma received full custody of Pebbles. Pebbles is so disappointed with Fred that she wants no contact with him. She is concerned that her father will somehow discover she has changed her major from Stone Age History to Wheel Making.

How can Pebbles prevent this information from being released?

Pebble’s Protection

Occasionally, students may need special protection. The University of Puget Sound provides all students the opportunity to restrict directory information.

Pebble’s major is considered directory information. Pebbles decided to go the Office of the Registrar to fill out a Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information form. Pebbles restricted Category III.
