Senior year provides a unique vantage point. Nearly 13 years
of public school education is drawing to a close, and the next
big phase of life is soon to begin. Now is a time to look both forward and back: to speculate about

people's right to know the process of governmental decision-making
and to review the documents and statistics leading to determinations
is basic to our society. Access to such information should not be
thwarted by shrouding it with the cloak of secrecy or confidentiality.
The legislature therefore declares that government is the public's
business and that the public, individually and collectively and represented
by a free press, should have access to the records of government
in accordance with the provisions of this article." From the New York State Freedom of Information Law
