FOI #26-726 (10-26-26, 1:01 pm) - Subject - Proof of Attendance in the Student Union room 101

Name - Student Student

Affiliation - University of Connecticut (Student)

My professor is accusing me of cheating (Basically taking the quiz outside of the classroom) simply because I didn't sign up with my NetID (Even though she never specified it was for attendance, but only to check grades. She keeps claiming otherwise). So it's gotten to the point where I need to show her evidence of me entering the classroom at around 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM, leaving at around 12:50 PM to go to the bathroom and coming back, and then me leaving the class after it was done at around 1:45 PM. The camera footage I need is only around the Student Union area outside Room 101.

Name - Michael Ayele (a.k.a.) W

Affiliation - Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL)

What I am requesting for prompt disclosure are records in your possession detailing your discussions about

[1] the September 15, 2021 testimonies that Maggie Nichols, Simone Biles, McKayla Maroney and Aly Raisman provided to Congress with regard to the “medical treatment” they received from Tier III sex offender Lawrence Gerard Nassar when they were minors;

[2] Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a.) W as a Black B.A. Degree graduate of Westminster College (Fulton, Missouri) and a former Missouri healthcare worker who was subjected to intense online frenzy following his decision to recognize that (i) he was 33 years old when he first read the February 25, 2025 CNN and NBC articles commending the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case; (ii) the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case raises questions on the reasons why the case of Lawrence Gerard Nassar was not handled in the same manner; (iii) the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case raises questions on the very strong possibility that Lawrence Gerard Nassar used the Wi-Fi network of Michigan State University to download child pornography videos; (iv) the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case raises questions on how seriously Michigan State University takes matters pertaining to cybersecurity particularly given the thousands of child pornography materials found at Lawrence Gerard Nassar’s place of residence; (v) the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case raises questions on the way in which Michigan State University has processed the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request they had previously assigned Case No. MSUFOI4723; (vi) the FBI handling of the Joel Le Scouarnec case raises questions on the way in which MSU has (in the past) processed complaints involving Black/African American healthcare workers accused of committing violence against women vs. white healthcare workers accused of committing violence against women;

[3] the decision of internet search engines to filter and distort Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a.) W’s written publications on matters pertaining to the September 15, 2021 testimonies of Maggie Nichols, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman and Simone Biles by generating unwelcome and unapproved queries such as “Michael Ayele October 26, 2013,” “Michael Ayele investigation,” “Michael Ayele United Against Hate Week,” “Michael Ayele Cybersecurity Awareness Month,” “Michael Ayele email,” “Michael Ayele Michigan State University,” “Michael Ayele California State University lawsuit,” “Michael Ayele medical consent case,” “Michael Ayele NCD January 2000 report,” “Michael Ayele death penalty appeal,” “Michael Ayele v washington adventist hospital,” “Michael Ayele age and relatives,” “Michael Ayele SORNA;” ( https://www.google.com/search?q=Michael+Ayele+SORNA )

Name - Ryan Gold

Affiliation -

Under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, C.G.S. 1-200 et seq., I request a copy of the blank, unsigned template agreement or agreements the University of Connecticut and its Division of Athletics uses for name, image and likeness or revenue-sharing payments to football student-athletes under the House v. NCAA settlement. Please include the version in use for 2025-26 and any version adopted for 2026-27, any attached schedule, annex or term sheet form, and any blank release or buyout form used when a student-athlete transfers.

I am asking for blank forms only. I am not requesting any signed agreement, any payment amount, or any information about any student-athlete. A blank form names no student and is not an education record under FERPA.

Similar blank forms were requested in FOI 25-398 (September 29, 2025) and FOI 25-522 (December 3, 2025). If records were released in response to those requests, copies of what was released would also satisfy this request.
