Students at the University of San Carlos of Guatemala (USAC) are protesting a requirement to sign a liability waiver as a condition for reconstructing their academic records. The students allege the document absolves the university of responsibility for previously reported irregularities within their files. They fear this prevents recourse for errors or mishandling of their information. Additionally, students report facing restrictions on seeking legal counsel during this process, further hindering their ability to challenge the university’s demands. The students view the requirement as a tactic to avoid accountability regarding existing issues with record-keeping. This situation raises concerns about student rights and the university's transparency. The USAC has not yet responded to the accusations.
