FOIA Request to Fisk University Regarding Admission List for 2024-25 School Year on December 12, 2024. The request was sent by Volunteer State News, a media organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.
In our quest for transparency and accountability in public institutions, we at Volunteer State News have requested records under the Tennessee Open Records Act, §10-7-503 et seq. The specific records sought are the names of all students admitted to Fisk University for the 2024-25 school year. Additionally, we have asked for these students' home zip codes or hometowns and the names of their graduated high schools.
As a media organization, access to public records is crucial in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. We believe that we are eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals due to our role in gathering and disseminating information to the public.
We await a response from Fisk University regarding this request and will keep our readers updated on any developments.
