Paxton SMACKS down U.T. Politburo!!!


"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
Galatians 6:9

Well, well, well:
AUSTIN –Attorney General Ken Paxton today issued an opinion regarding the right of university regents to access records in the possession of the university that a regent believes are necessary to review in order to fulfill his/her duties as a regent.

Consistent with the opinions of three recent attorneys general, Paxton concluded that a university cannot prohibit individual regents from access to and copies of university records unless a state or federal law requires otherwise.

The ruling notes that access to records is a necessary part of a board member’s fulfillment of his or her duties. As a previous opinion said, “a governmental body cannot adopt a policy that prevents a member of the body from performing the duties of office.”
Read the full opinion below:
