CORRECTS and REPLACES: Mainframe computer stolen from local TVCC campus

Posted on July 14, 2009 by Dissent

Yesterday this site posted a story from and link to The Palestine Herald about a breach at Trinity Valley Community College. I just received this email, however, that the original source was in error:

Good Afternoon,

It has been brought to my attention that your website has posted as Associated Press news item regarding a potential security breach at Trinity Valley Community College in Palestine, Texas. That article contained completely erroneous information. The computer that was stolen was used exclusively for security surveillance. No personal, confidential or student information was stored on that computer. TVCC has had no breach of security at all.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at the number below
or on my cell phone at [redacted].

Thank you,

Jennifer Hannigan
Public Information Officer
Trinity Valley Community College
