FOIA Request to Oregon Institute Of Technology regarding all public university salaries in FY2025 on January 16, 2026.
A request was submitted by Beaver State News to the Oregon Institute Of Technology under the Oregon Public Records Law. The request seeks comprehensive records of employee compensation for all individuals employed by the university during Fiscal Year 2025. The requested information includes various data fields such as employee name, gender, age or year of birth, date of birth, university name, department, employer name, title or position, hire date, compensation amount (including base pay and any additional pay), compensation type (e.g., salary, hourly, stipend, bonus), and employment type (full-time or part-time).
The request emphasizes the importance of access to public records for media professionals in fulfilling their role of holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. As a member of the media and a participant in The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy—a non-profit organization assisting news media companies in investigating governmental agencies—the requester believes they are eligible for a fee waiver.
