I only pity those honest students!!! Huaaaattt??!! -- Regards, Greg -------- Life is not a rehearsal, you only live once!

I dont think so. The story is that some university officials were accepting cash in exchange for classifications. Someone snitched and an audit was taken on the whole department and those whose entries in the system had problems were declassified

Moses, What if they get a keylogger somewhere and capture a lecturer's login credentials? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Damn!!

In my 4yrs school experience at KU what have learned is that, there no system is always 100% secure. As far as the SYSTEM ADMIN is always trying hard to make the system secure, ensuring every user (super) uphold INTEGRITY and some MORAL ETHICS remain a challenge. The people with responsibilities of entering the marks into system are the same who breach the trust put in them. First I heard about STD's (Sexually Transmitted Degrees) and now student are exchanging of Cash for marks. The big question is why did they not use audit trail log (Which i believe it must be there). Where they afraid of depicting their own crime or where they trying to cover their friend. At the end of the day, the storyline shifts to poor student "They hacked the system" what a lie.
