Dept. of Education Website's Sudden Remake
Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON DC -- Education Web site is up for overhaul to fit Bush
philosophy The U.S. Department of Education's Web
site will be revamped to bring the content in line with the Bush
administration's philosophy, according to a Sept. 18 report by Education
Week.
The U.S. Department of Education will unveil an updated Web site
this fall. That update reportedly entails removing thousands of
pages -- many of which are dated or inactive.
However, many the pages will be removed
for another reason: because they do not "reflect the priorities,
philosophies, or goals of the present administration," according
to a May 31 directive obtained by Education Week. The periodical
reported that, according to the directive, everything on the site
dated before Bush took office in January 2001 will be removed unless
it supports current administration initiatives.
The Department of Education will nevertheless,
still be required to keep certain Clinton-era information on its
site. According to the 1996 Electronic Freedom of Information Act,
documents that are likely to "become the subject of subsequent [FOI]
requests," must be maintained on the government Web site. Records
on a "popular topic," should be kept in the government's electronic
reading room.
The Department of Education currently keeps
its electronic reading room available to the public on the Web.
The Department of Education had a good track record in complying
with the Electronic FOI Act under Clinton, according to a 1999 study
done by OMB Watch, a group that monitors issues of access to the
federal government. The Department of Education did not return repeated
calls and could not be reached for comment.
