Vaccination information is classified as PHI, and is covered by HIIPA rules. However, HIIPA only applies to HIIPA covered entities. The only issue I see hear is the list for privacy concerns. This seems no different then what the Army is doing by regulating gym hours, leave opportunities etc. by forcing you to prove your vaccinated.

CPT (Join to see) - HIPAA is a challenging subject for many in healthcare and when someone comments of late about it and gets the acronym wrong, often it is because they really do not know much about it. Maybe you are an outlier but reading your original post I do not think so.

MAJ Byron Oyler - No sir, I am an outlier who is far too prone to intemperate commentary. During my last FT employment with DOD I was (I am embarrassed now to admit) the HIPAA/PHI GS officer for the Dental Command. I was also an inactive Combat Arms officer at the same time. Great solving tactical problems, but I never found a hill upon which I was unwilling to die. Too aggressive, too much time downrange, and the US now appears to be circling the drain = stress. I am too far distant from that training to be making definitive comments on this topic.

I think it's idiotic that the school did this, but, I'm pretty sure that HIPAA doesn't apply here.

Voluntarily marking yourself that you have received the vaccine is your choice and not a violation. The tricky part is how are they marking those without? If everyone that voluntarily shows a card is marked and those who do not receive no marking then you have potentially indicated their status against their wishes. A good counter argument is they came and chose to stay without the marking.
