From: University of Central Florida

Good afternoon, Adrien.

Your request has been forwarded to my attention for reply.

With regard to your records request, please find attached a copy of the University's public records policy, Policy 2-100.5.

Additionally, I have included the public records logs from the Communications office, the General Counsel's office, and the University's Institutional Knowledge Management department for the dates indicated. Beyond these and the links provided on the General Counsel's website, linked here<https://generalcounsel.ucf.edu/legal-services/>, there are no additional reports or guides used by the University.

The University relies upon the provisions of chapter 119, Florida Statutes, and the various exemptions that apply to public records as they exist in statute. Additionally, the University occasionally consults the most current edition of the Government-In-The-Sunshine Manual prepared by the Florida Attorney General's office and published by the First Amendment Foundation.
With these items, I am closing out your request. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you,
Tyler
