Before all of you ride off into the sunset on a high horse, remember that these sorts of events are fairly common at universities. Keep in mind that although the student that hacked the USC servers didn't actually steal anything, he demonstrated that USC wasn't taking any more stringent actions against the possibility of being hacked.
All the news I've read and heard suggests that this is not a rare case. Of course, it's easy fodder for you guys and I understand that, but put it into serious perspective.
We understand that, and hopefully USC has gotten better since then. I'm just bitter that I got my information really hacked, thanks to the rival school. This is a major problem for all of the colleges though, especially with the rise of online applications.
I understand. Believe me, it's not like I'm any happier as an alum. But I think that this just further points out how awfully vulnerable most schools are.
