FOIA Request to California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office regarding State Community College Employee Compensation Data, FY 2025 on December 4, 2025.
Golden State Today has submitted a request under the California Public Records Act for records pertaining to employee compensation at community colleges in California for Fiscal Year 2025. The request was sent to the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office on December 4, 2025.
The requested information includes comprehensive data on all individuals employed by the community colleges during the specified fiscal year. Specifically, Golden State Today seeks records that detail employee names, gender (if recorded), age or year of birth (if not exempt), date of birth (if not exempt or limited to month/year), college name, department, employer name, title or position, hire date, compensation amount (including base pay and any additional pay), compensation type (such as salary, hourly wage, stipend, or bonus), and employment type (full-time or part-time).
As a media organization dedicated to transparency and accountability in government affairs, Golden State Today emphasizes the importance of accessing public records to fulfill its role in disseminating information to the public. In light of this responsibility and as a member of The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy—a non-profit organization assisting media companies and advocacy groups—Golden State Today has requested a fee waiver for this information.
We look forward to receiving this information in an electronic format as it will greatly aid in our reporting efforts. As always, we remain open for any questions or clarifications regarding this request.
