In Response to “Transparency? Not at CSUF?”

Dear Editor: I was disappointed by your April 23 front-page editorial, “Transparency? Not at CSUF.” Our framework for managing inquiries from news organizations like the Daily Titan is consistent with practices in place across the public, nonprofit and business sectors. To conflate the existence of a media-relations unit within the university with a lack of transparency is unfortunate. Our goal is to be assistive to both external news media organizations as well as our campus community. We help ensure that a reporter’s inquiry lands in the best place within the university, that the relevant information is gathered for a productive interac- tion and that there is appropriate follow-up/follow-through. While the timeline for the university to respond to inquiries may not always meet your expectations, we do not aspire to withhold information. Healthy organizations are transparent organizations: We believe that. At no time during the past few weeks or months did you request a meeting to discuss your concerns. I would have welcomed the opportunity. We look forward to a constructive relationship moving forward.

Sincerely, Jeffrey D. Cook Associate Vice President for Strategic Communications

Letter to the Editor In Response to “ Transparency? Not at CSUF”

Dear administrators and journalists, It was with shock and dismay that I read the front page story of today’s Daily Titan detailing the utter lack of transparency and lack of communication CSUF currently has in its media relations. What we need in all of our institutions is more openness, not less. More hones- ty, not more secrecy. The idea that we treat student journalists in this cavalier and dismissive fashion and still pretend to be devoted to higher education is like a sick joke. We have a journalism program, and treat journalists like this? For the first time ever, I can say I am ashamed to be a Titan and to work for this institution. This new story, and the wrongheaded policies that spawned it, are a disgrace to Cal State Fullerton, and to higher education in general. And you can quote me on that, Daily Titan editors. The administration might be in permanent CYA mode. The faculty aren’t.

Sincerely, Jonathan Taylor Ph.D. Professor and Graduate Advisor Geography Department
