I am familiar with the "personnel matters" exemption to the Public Records and Open Meetings Laws from my days both teaching and serving on the J. City School Board.  Those records can only be released with the permission of the employee.  I was rather astonished when the University administration released the report of their investigation (contracted to a Portland law firm) of the Shurtz incident.  Since that report was the "backbone" of their disciplinary procedure relating to the Shurtz incident, I would have thought it, properly, would have been part of her personnel record and, therefore, exempte from public disclosure.  In my opinion, the Administration chose to release it to publicly justify the extremely condemning comments from University President Schill.  The release of that report constituted, IMO, a "public shaming" of Professor Shurtz and was wholely inappropriate.  

I believe we will see the University continue to release what makes them look "good" and hide the rest.
