UI students' information mistakenly put on Web

URBANA – The Social Security numbers of some University of Illinois students were posted on a Web site for about six weeks in January and February.

The Department of Computer Science inadvertently posted the names, Social Security numbers and UI identification numbers of some of its students on its departmental Web site. The posted file did not contain the Social Security numbers of all the students listed, but it did contain the UI identification number for all of them.
