According to the January 26, 1994 Chronicle of Higher Education: "Walter Harrison, vice-president for university relations, says Michigan's lawyers also believe that the institution is barred under the federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act from reading electronic mail ..." But ... The University asserted that the ECPA meant that they could ignore state Freedom of Information Act requests for the business-related email of University administrators. The April 27, 1994 Chronicle of Higher Education reports that they changed their mind on this second point and released the requested messages. --
