The unnecessary collection and mishandling of personal information will not stop until a few high profile class action lawsuits are filed and judgements are awarded that bankrupt the guilty institutions. Let the filings begin!

I'm not disagreeing with your comment, but you missed a couple words, so I'll insert it for you.

My son is one of the over 135,000 studens that received this letter from Sacred Heart dated May 12, 2006. Does anyone know if there is a class action? Is anyone interested in starting a class action? Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Start looking around, colleges. There are affordable solutions that can protect your student data so you don't end up in a lawsuit when it's compromised. You need to start treating your institutions like the businesses they are.

My son is one of the victims. Does anyone have an attorney that can start a class action over this? Please write to:
