FOIA Request to Schoolcraft College regarding Chinese National students on June 16, 2025.

A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to Schoolcraft College by NW Wayne News, seeking detailed records concerning Chinese National students enrolled at the institution. The request, made under the Michigan Freedom of Information Act § 15.231 et seq., specifically asks for information in an electronic format to facilitate accessibility and analysis.

The request comprises several key points:

1. A list or document detailing all current students who are Chinese Nationals, including their respective departments of study. If privacy laws restrict this information, a total count of such students, broken down by department, is requested instead.

2. Documentation showing the scholarships awarded to these Chinese National students, specifying the amount and source of each scholarship.

3. A list of recipients of scholarships granted by entities affiliated with the Chinese Scholarship Council, unless this data is already included in the previous request.

4. Policies or procedures that outline how Schoolcraft College monitors its students, including those who are Chinese Nationals, to safeguard intellectual property and other confidential information.

NW Wayne News emphasizes its role in providing transparency and holding public institutions accountable through its reporting efforts. The organization also seeks a fee waiver for this FOIA request due to its status as a media entity engaged in news dissemination.

This inquiry is conducted in collaboration with The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, a non-profit organization dedicated to investigating governmental agencies and promoting transparency through Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws. More details about their mission can be found on their website here.
