A computer attack at the University of Texas at Dallas is worse than

and other personal information may have been exposed for up to 35,000 
faculty, current and former students, staff and others, putting them at 
risk of identify theft.

Officials said Friday that the names and Social Security numbers of 29,000 
library card holders were possibly exposed. That group mainly includes
