Subject: South Carolina Public Records Law Request: EAB risk score reports (University of South Carolina)

Email

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the South Carolina Public Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

1) An up-to-date report (as of the time this request is processed) from the university's Educational Advisory Board (EAB) system documenting student predicted risk scores, broken down in aggregate by the following categories:
- Race
- Gender
- Race AND gender
- Major
- GPA group

As explained in the attached document, this data is stored in the university's EAB system as part of the Student Success Collaborative and can easily be searched and compiled into reports. Please note that I am not requesting any personally identifying information, but rather aggregate data for the aforementioned groups.

2) All validation studies or technical reports detailing the unique predictive model created by EAB for the university and how it performs across different demographic groups.

I ask that all fees be waived as I am a journalist and I intend to use the requested records to publish articles in the public interest and not for any commercial purpose

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 15 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Todd Feathers
