“Upperclassmen at Saint Joseph’s University’s Haub School of Business found out precisely where they stood among their peers when a mass email sent from the dean’s office March 6 accidentally included a spreadsheet of their grade-point averages. Officials said Tuesday that the extensive report card hitched a ride on a solicitation for an internship in Italy that went out to nearly 500 undergrads.”

Lucky this is a business school and not a law school; an especially litigious bunch could make St. Joe’s pay dearly for this mistake: “Federal law forbids a student’s grades from being disclosed without written consent.” [Daily News]
