— Evanston city clerk leaves meeting after aldermen vote to add additional
FOIA officers – Genevieve Bookwalter (DIERSEN: Should I request the Illinois
Attorney General Kwame Raoul to review Wheaton City Clerk Sharon
Barrett-Hagen’s denial of my May 29, 2019 FOIA request for “All documents
submitted by all applicants for the Wheaton North District City Council
vacancy?” According to her June 4, 2019 email, “In accordance with
the Open Meetings Act, on June 3, 2019 the City Council adjourned into closed
session to review the documents submitted by the applicants for the Wheaton
North District City Council vacancy and those documents were entered into and
made a part of those minutes. Your request for the records referenced above is
respectfully denied per Section 5 ILCS 140/2, Sec. 7 Exemptions (1) (1)
“Minutes of meetings of public bodies closed to the public as provided in the
Open Meetings Act until the public body makes the minutes available to the
public under Section 2.06 of the Open Meetings Act.” The Illinois Election Code
allows the public release of statements of candidacy when an individual chooses
to run for an elected office. While the applicants in this case are not running
for election, but rather are seeking to be appointed to a vacancy on the City
Council, after reviewing State statutes, we believe it would be permissible to
release the names and addresses of the applicants in response to your request,
and that information is attached.” Of course, those who do not want anyone
to see the documents support Barrett-Hagen’s denial.)

Sanchez (DIERSEN: Before the January 17, 2012 candidate forum, DuPage County
granted my FOIA request and provided me with copies of everything that the 11
candidates had submitted.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/article/20120120/news/701209725/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In
his application letter to Cronin, LeVan wrote that he was seeking the seat to
help the chairman advance his agenda “for a more efficient, responsive and
transparent government in DuPage County.” Bedrossian, 58, owns Bedrock
Earthscapes, LLC, in Wheaton. He is a past board member of the DuPage
Federation for Human Services and has volunteered for a variety of community
service organizations. “I believe governmental organizations should be the
very best possible stewards of their constituents’ tax dollars,”

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Documents obtained from Murray State University challenge former Southern
Illinois University President Randy Dunn’s claim that he did nothing to
“fast-track” the hiring of the son of a former SIU trustee while president of
MSU. The documents, obtained by The Southern via the Kentucky Open Records Act,
show Dunn signed a hiring process exemption, also known as a search waiver, to
hire Tyson Manering — son of former SIU Trustee Donna Manering — as an
international recruiter at MSU. The exemption allowed Murray State to hire
Tyson Manering outside of its standard search and hiring protocols. Generally,
filling a position like Manering’s would have required forming a search
committee to vet applicants, interview top candidates, and collectively make a
hire, MSU policy indicates. In this case, Manering was selected directly, via
the exemption, 12 days before the international recruiter job was ever publicly
posted, and more than two weeks before he submitted his online job application,
records show.)

forms are used.)
https://www.timesfreepress.com/news/business/aroundregion/story/2019/may/31/how-get-your-resume-noticed/495709/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Highlight your strengths and what is most relevant to the potential employer.
Place the strongest and most relevant points first where they are more apt to
be read in order to hook the reader. Match the needs of the hiring company.
Review job postings online and in the newspapers for positions that interest
you. Each listing will almost always have a brief blurb about the company and
the position available. Read the job description closely, and use the key words
listed in these ads, and match them to the bullet points in your resume. Tailor
your resume to the position. Be positive. For instance, if you feel your past
graduation date will subject you to age discrimination, leave it off the
resume. Focus on the duties that do support your objective and curtail or omit
irrelevant personal information like your race.)
