Dear Mr. Slemp,

I am writing in response to your Freedom of Information Act request dated
April 28, 2021, which was received on April 29, 2021.

You requested, "A file containing the university-affiliated email addresses
of all current University of Michigan - Ann Arbor students as of the Spring
2021 semester."

You may search for university email addresses by individual at the
following website: https://mcommunity.umich.edu/. Your request for batch
university email addresses is denied pursuant to Section 13 (1) (u) of the
Michigan Freedom of Information Act, which exempts from disclosure “records
of a public body's security measures, including security plans, security
codes and combinations, passwords, passes, keys, and security procedures,
to the extent that the records relate to the ongoing security of the public
body;” and/or Section 13 (1) (y), which exempts “[r]ecords or information
of measures designed to protect the security or safety of persons or
property…” If you would like a list containing only the names of currently
enrolled students at the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, please let us
know and we will be happy to process a new request.

Please note that within 180 days from the date of this letter, you have the
right to appeal the denial of information to the President of the
University or seek judicial review in the court of claims to try to compel
disclosure. If you elect to appeal and the President upholds the denial,
you may still seek judicial review within the 180-day period.

An appeal to the President must be submitted in writing to: President’s
Office, c/o Liz Barry, The University of Michigan, 2080 Fleming
Administration Building, 503 Thompson Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1340 (or
by email to: presoff@umich.edu). The statement must (1) identify the
request and the final determination by the FOIA officer that is being
appealed, (2) specifically state the word “appeal,” and (3) identify the
reason or reasons why the final determination should be reversed.

If you seek judicial review in the Michigan court of claims and prevail,
you will be awarded reasonable attorney's fees, costs and disbursements
incurred in maintaining the action. If you prevail in part, you may still
be awarded complete or partial reimbursement for those expenses. In
addition to actual and compensatory damages, you will be awarded punitive
damages in the amount of $1,000.00 if the court finds that the University
was arbitrary and capricious in its denial.

A copy of Section 10 of the Michigan FOIA is available for your reference
and review online at http://foia.vpcomm.umich.edu/foia-right-to-appeal/.

Sincerely,
