CA: On-campus computer thefts aimed at Faculty Association

Posted on April 28, 2011 by Dissent

Chenin Burnett-Doering reports:

Computers were allegedly stolen from the PCC [Pasadena City College] Faculty Association office as well as from the office of its President, Roger Marheine over spring break.

Marheine was upset to learn about the theft. “In both cases a ‘master key’ was used, as there was no sign of forced entry. Thus, apparently, the thief has access to PCC offices,” he said.

According to Marheine, all FA members’ names and addresses were on the computer. However, no vital information, such as social security numbers, were stored on its hard drive.

All FA credit union bank accounts were immediately checked, Marheine said. “All accounts are safe, in order, and protected,” he said. “This was a petty and futile act,” Marheine added.
