A document from Cal State Chico shows a majority of students seeking exemptions were on religious grounds. About half the requests were approved.
Officials at Cal State Chico are investigating a data breach that exposed confidential information from 130 students who requested religious exemptions from the COVID-19 vaccine.
The data from a leaked spreadsheet included the students’ self-reported explanations of how their religious beliefs conflict with the university’s vaccination requirements, according to university officials. A majority of students’ names, identification numbers and email addresses were scrubbed from the spreadsheet, but 24 students seeking religious exemptions were identifiable, officials said.
The Cal State COVID-19 vaccination policy allows students and employees to seek religious exemptions, which are not permitted in California’s K-12 education system, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. The university approved half the exemption requests on the document, according to the Sacramento Bee, and many of the denied requests were resubmitted for another chance at approval.
