Distressed or disturbed students’ behavior at University System of Maryland schools will be monitored to ensure campus safety under a new measure passed Friday by the Board of Regents.

The measure could face a tangle of laws that limit how much medical information can be considered private, and how much can be accessed by the behavioral assessment teams. It is one of several recommendations from a panel headed by former Gov. Marvin Mandel, a Board of Regents member, that Attorney General Douglas Gansler is reviewing.
