TRAC uses public records requests, big data to report on federal agencies By Rachel Sandler
	The research center, Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a nonprofit, non-partisan, data-gathering research organization at SU, has upset numerous government officials and has been at the center of government disputes since its inception in 1989. TRAC — as it is most commonly referred to — systematically uses the Freedom of Information Act to gather and analyze big data from federal government agencies and make it available to the public. The center has now started a new project relating to the Freedom of Information Act. External Link
