UCLA Would Rather You Didn’t Read the Syllabus

Universities like U Michigan/UCLA are still dragging their feet on syllabus transparency. - Daniel Buck

I had a simple question: What are teachers learning at schools of education?..

In the course of that investigation (the results of which you can read about here), I requested the syllabi of required courses from 10 different universities. 

• Eight gave me the requested documents promptly. 
• The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor has yet to provide the syllabi over a year later but assures me that it will do so…one day…eventually. 
• The University of California, Los Angeles, however, declined to fulfill this basic public records request. In a letter justifying their decision, they wrote that the public interest in not disclosing the requested documents “outweighs the public interest served by disclosure.”..
