Watchdog Training Governors State University

The Better Government Association (BGA) in conjunction with Governors State University hosted a public Watchdog Training session. Matthew Topic, BGA's outside counsel, gave an in-depth presentation on the Illinois Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), the state’s primary disclosure law, at the University Park-based institution. Topic’s presentation focused on the law and how to get access to public records by filing an effective FOIA request.
