KS: Personal information stolen from Student Housing office

Posted on December 3, 2011 by Dissent

Adam Strunk reports on a breach at University of Kansas:

Thieves broke into a Department of Student Housing office Wednesday night and stole documents containing personal information of current and former student housing residents, according to a Department of Student Housing email distributed Friday afternoon to those affected.

The email, signed by Student Housing Director Diana Robertson, encouraged those affected by the theft to “be on the lookout for any possible misuse of your information.”

The records stolen included names, apartment numbers, birth dates, email addresses, KUID numbers and information about some current and former housing residents as well as information about the people they listed as dependants.
