Leak of Multiple University Databases

The Princeton "University Database" that was hacked is a privately maintained Alumni Association site from the UK. It is not on the Princeton domain or associated with the University at all.

Here's an excerpt: "Come out and suppoert Chickenshed, an inclusive theatre company based in London that brings people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities together to create groundbreaking and exciting new theatre."

Time will tell how the world will change now that this sensitive information is out in the open.

The University of Michigan database dump here, on the other hand, is legit.

4 of the dumps labeled U of M are from MSU (and at a glance, a couple of them appear to be a database that the linked website is intended to publish).

One of them looks like a database from the student association. Most of their stuff is built by $9/hr work study so no big surprise it's insecure.
