FOIA Request to Thomas Edison State University regarding recent course syllabi on August 6, 2025.
A request has been made under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act by Mercer Times for access to course syllabi from Thomas Edison State University. The request seeks a comprehensive list of syllabi for all undergraduate and graduate courses offered during the Spring 2025 semester. This includes courses across all departments, schools, and colleges, irrespective of whether they were conducted in-person, online, or through hybrid formats.
The requested information should include relevant metadata such as the course title and number, instructor name, department or academic unit, and the course delivery format. The request emphasizes the importance of these records for media professionals in holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. A fee waiver is also requested due to the professional role of the requester in disseminating information.
