| Abstract | Sunshine laws are designed to make meetings and records of public entities visible so that a state can help ensure accountability of decision making affecting public resources. The laws often pit the news media's desire for greater public disclosure of information on public college and university governance against institutional leaders' desire to deliberate and discuss issues candidly. According to a new survey of data and interviews in six states, the areas in which open-meeting and open-records laws have their greatest impact on boards are in board performance and presidential search and selection. The laws are steadily being updated to reflect the mood in state legislatures. Also affecting the laws' evolution are various new developments such as the rising importance of fund-raising by university-related foundations, electronic communication technologies that allow for "virtual meetings," and new campus security measures that require balancing the "public's right to know" and the need to shield security measures from potential terrorists. (Contains a list of 26 resources.) (ERIC). |
