Mailing Exposes Personal Data

The problem was discovered June 6. The university conducted an investigation into the incident and notified state and federal officials of the breach, the newspaper reported.

There has been no indication that the revealed information has been used illicitly.

The numbers on the mailing labels were supposed to be randomly generated, but instead included roughly 650 Social Security and 1,400 Medicaid numbers. An alphabetical character preceded the numbers, and there were no hyphens used.
