http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=local&id=5268451 There is a warning for hundreds of students at Montgomery College. You may be at risk for identity theft. The discovery was made by students at the campus just outside of Conroe. Students found a list of all graduating seniors on a computer drive that is publicly accessible on all campus computers. On that list of names was also personal and sensitive information, including social security numbers and addresses. School officials say it was posted on the public shared drive accidentally by a new employee, who has now been disciplined.
