FOIA Request to Lane College Regarding List of Admitted Students for 2024-25 School Year on December 12, 2024.

In a recent move to ensure transparency and accountability in public institutions, we at Volunteer State News sent a request under the Tennessee Open Records Act, §10-7-503 et seq., to Lane College. The request was made for a list of all students admitted to the school for the academic year 2024-25.

The specific details requested include each student's name, home zip code or hometown, and the name of their graduated high school. This information is essential in providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.

As a media organization dedicated to reporting news to the public, access to such public records is vital for us at Volunteer State News. It enables us to fulfill our professional responsibilities which include holding public institutions accountable and ensuring transparency.

We believe that as media professionals involved in disseminating information, we are eligible for a fee waiver. We await a response from Lane College regarding this request.
