However, the position has evolved into a manager of open records here at the university. Tom is the custodian of the records, and I execute all of the requests that come in.
Every request is a serious one, and most of the requests come from reporters.
One sportswriter wanted to know the salaries of all the UGA football coaches. Another reporter wanted to know the results of a soil test at a possible toxic-waste site. I have even played a role in divorces when spouses of UGA employees want to know salary and other personnel information. Now it easily takes up 100 percent of my time, and I even have a part-time secretary. I hate to use the term, but we're on the cutting edge.
