I don’t think they’re redactions. I thought that if anything it was a way to make the nature of the request clearer, since requests for public records are themselves public records. It’s not a secret who any of the people mentioned are.

A request for such records is a request for correspondence between positions, not individuals. When one writes from from a uoregon.edu address, one is communicating from an office, not from a person; any actions covered in such correspondence are the actions of the institution, as represented by the office – indeed, that office is occupied by a person, but that person is doing the business of the office.

At least in theory.
