Heh, ok. I think we're agreeing then. :) Definitely some variation from state to state. And definitely some restrictions due to things like FERPA and other privacy laws. But I think it's good for state university employees to know that this kind of thing can happen at all. I think that many of them would be surprised to learn that the general public can make any kind of request at all for copies of what they consider private emails. I know that my wife, who does some work in areas that can be politically charged, was when she took a job at UNC and someone told her this.
