FOIA Request to CUNY Bernard M. Baruch College regarding Public University FY 2024 Employee Salaries on December 5, 2025.
Empire State Today has submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to CUNY Bernard M. Baruch College seeking detailed records of employee compensation for Fiscal Year 2024. The request, made under the New York Freedom of Information Law, aims to obtain comprehensive data on all individuals employed by the university during this period.
The request specifically asks for records that include several data fields: Fiscal Year, Employee Name, Gender, Age or Year of Birth, Date of Birth, Employer Name, Title or Position, Department, Hire Date, Compensation Amount (including base pay and additional pay), Compensation Type (such as salary or bonus), and Employment Type (full-time or part-time). The request acknowledges that not all fields may be present in every record but seeks the production of all responsive records with any available information.
Empire State Today emphasizes the importance of accessing public records to fulfill its role in providing transparency and holding public institutions accountable. The organization also requests a fee waiver based on its status as a media professional entity involved in news dissemination.
The requestor is affiliated with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting transparency through the use of Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws. More information about the coalition can be found on their website here.
