Harvard Business School will reject 119 applicants who followed a hacker's instructions and peeked into the school's admission site to see if they had been accepted, the school's dean said.

"This behavior is unethical at best -- a serious breach of trust that cannot be countered by rationalization," Kim Clark said in a statement Monday. "Any applicant found to have done so will not be admitted to this school."


Now, if they would only apply similar standards to their professors.

Well, its hard for me to get excited if they were ONLY accessing THEIR OWN INFO. Heck, my son went to Univ. of Fl and you HAD to access their computer to get anything, even your grades. jdn
