FOIA Request to Morgan Community College regarding Public University FY 2024 Employee Salaries on December 5, 2025.
Centennial State News has submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to Morgan Community College, seeking detailed records related to employee compensation for the fiscal year 2024. The request was made under the Colorado Open Records Act § 24-72-201 et seq., with a preference for receiving the information in electronic format.
The request specifically asks for comprehensive data on all individuals employed by the university during Fiscal Year 2024. This includes information such as fiscal year details, employee names, gender, age or year of birth, date of birth, employer name, job title or position, department affiliation, hire date, compensation amount (including base pay and any additional pay), compensation type (e.g., salary, hourly wage, stipend, bonus), and employment type (full-time or part-time).
The media organization acknowledges that not all requested fields may be present in every record but emphasizes its interest in obtaining all responsive records regardless of completeness. In cases where parts of a record are exempt from disclosure, Centennial State News requests that non-exempt portions be provided in redacted form rather than being withheld entirely.
As part of their role in gathering and reporting news to the public and ensuring transparency and accountability within public institutions, Centennial State News has also requested a fee waiver. This is based on their status as a media professional involved in disseminating information to the public.
Additionally, it is noted that the requester is affiliated with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy. This organization assists media companies and advocacy groups in investigating governmental agencies through Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws. More information about this coalition can be found at https://stopsecrecy.org/about/.
