since the researchers concluded the methodology was unethical, i doubt it was repeated
many times in a university setting. lawsuits and all.
here's recent critique:

"...The Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE)... has been criticized on many grounds, and yet a
majority of textbook authors have ignored these criticisms in their discussions of the SPE,
thereby misleading both students [philosophers] and the general public about the study’s
questionable scientific validity...

These new criticisms include the biased and incomplete collection of data, the extent to
which the SPE drew on a prison experiment devised and conducted by students in one of
Zimbardo’s classes 3 months earlier, the fact that the guards received precise instructions
regarding the treatment of the prisoners, the fact that the guards were not told they were
subjects, and the fact that participants were almost never completely immersed by the
situation..."
