Records and communications related to CAPS program withdrawal requests and associated university administrative actions from June 20, 2025,

Name: Student Student

Affiliation: Independent Student at UConn

Location: UConn Storrs

Request Date Start: 06/20/2025

Request Date End: 07/03/2025

Details: Subject: FOIA Request for Immediate Release of Records Regarding CAPS Program Withdrawal Urgent and Good Faith Request

Dear FOIA Officer,

I write to you in good faith and with urgency under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act to formally request full disclosure of all records, communications, and documents pertaining to the CAPS program withdrawal processes and any related administrative actions at the University of Connecticut.

This request specifically covers the period from June 20, 2025, to the present date and includes but is not limited to:
• All emails, memos, internal and external correspondence involving CAPS program staff, university administrators, and any other relevant parties concerning student withdrawals, dismissals, or pressures to withdraw from the CAPS program.
• Official policies, guidelines, and decisions related to CAPS withdrawal procedures during this timeframe.
• Minutes, notes, or recordings from meetings or discussions addressing the oversight, management, or disciplinary actions concerning CAPS participants.
• Any documentation reflecting delays, deflections, or disrespectful handling of withdrawal requests or student concerns within the CAPS program.

As a committed student who wishes to continue my education at UConn, I believe transparency and accountability in this matter are essential for safeguarding student rights and fostering an equitable academic environment.

Given the serious implications this matter has on student rights, institutional accountability, and public trust, I expect a full and transparent response. If any portion of this request is denied or withheld, please provide a detailed justification citing the specific statutory exemptions under the FOIA.

I am prepared to cover any reasonable fees associated with processing this request, but please notify me in advance if such fees will exceed $50.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this important matter. I anticipate your response within the legally required timeframe and trust that the University will honor its commitment to transparency and accountability.

Athletics revenue-sharing financial information

Name: Matt Baker

Affiliation: The Athletic

Location: UConn Storrs

Request Date Start: Withheld.

Request Date End: Withheld.

Details: As part of our news-gathering process at The Athletic, I’m writing to make a public records request. As of July 1, NCAA rules allow schools to pay their athletes directly under the terms of the House v. NCAA lawsuit settlement. As such, I’m requesting:

*UConn’s payroll as it relates to the payments allowed because of the settlement. By payroll, I mean the list, spreadsheet or other such record showing which individuals are being paid, how much they’re receiving and any other related financial terms.

*UConn’s broader athletics budget as it relates to these payments. By that, I mean the athletic department’s budget per sport with the so-called House/revenue-sharing payments. Many schools have said publicly that they’re allocating funds in this manner with a certain percentage/dollar amount going to football, a different percentage to men’s basketball, etc.

In simple terms, I’m asking for the document or documents that show what your school/athletic department is paying with breakdowns by sport and by individual.

If you contend any responsive records are not public, please cite the specific statutory exemption that you believe applies. Email (mbaker@theathletic.com) is my preferred way to receive the records. Please let me know in advance if the cost for production exceeds $50 so I can inform my editors and potentially amend my request. Finally, I hope this request is straightforward and easy enough to understand. If, however, you have questions or require clarification, let me know. I’ll be glad to work with you to make the process as efficient as possible for everyone.
