The University of South Carolina is warning about 7,000 faculty, staff and
students that some of their personal information was on a desktop computer
stolen from an office at the business school.
Russ McKinney, the university spokesman, said that over the Memorial Day
weekend, several items were stolen from an office in the Moore School of
Business.
"Among the items was a desktop computer belonging to Deputy Dean Dr. Scott
Koerwer," McKinney said. "As a result of the computer being stolen, we
feel it is possible that some personally identifiable data could have been
compromised."
McKinney said university officials have no evidence anyone's personal
information was accessed.
