The Better Government Association, a full-service, nonpartisan, watchdog organization committed to ensuring good government and promoting accountability, is conducting one of its "Watchdog Training" sessions on campus. The training is two hours long, teaches people the basics of the Freedom of Information Act, how to file a FOIA request, and what to do in the event that a FOIA request is denied. This training is conducted by Annum Haider, BGA's Civic Engagement & Research Analyst, and the BGA's outside attorney, Matt Topic. The Watchdog Training is free, and open to all members of the EIU and Coles County communities.
