UTMB's Jim LeDuc is quoted in this column about a proposal to change the Texas Open Records Act. From the column: "LeDuc seems to understand the need to balance security and transparency, and he is proud of UTMB's record of keeping the public informed through community boards and its Web site. ‘You simply can't do this work if the community doesn't trust you,' he said. ‘And so it's very important for us to maintain that trust." In the Galveston County Daily News, publisher Dolph Tillotson wrote a column opposing changes to the Texas Open Records Act.
