FOIA Request to Bowling Green State University-Firelands regarding recent course syllabi on August 6, 2025.

A request was submitted to Bowling Green State University-Firelands under the Ohio Open Records Law, seeking access to a comprehensive list of course syllabi for all undergraduate and graduate courses offered during the Spring 2025 semester. The request was made by Buckeye Reporter, a media organization dedicated to providing accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.

The requested records include syllabi for courses across all departments, schools, and colleges, regardless of whether they were offered in-person, online, or in hybrid formats. Additionally, the request specifies the inclusion of relevant metadata such as course title and number, instructor name, department or academic unit, and course delivery format.

Buckeye Reporter emphasized the importance of accessing public records to fulfill their role in holding public institutions accountable and ensuring transparency. They also requested a fee waiver based on their status as a media professional. The requestor is affiliated with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, an organization that aids media companies and advocacy groups in investigating governmental agencies through Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws.

We look forward to receiving this information in an electronic format as it will greatly aid in our reporting efforts. As always, we remain open for any questions or clarifications regarding this request.
