McGill University is reviewing its computer system after the academic
records of some students were briefly made accessible Friday on the
Montreal school's website.

However, the university is downplaying the magnitude of the problem.

It says only the information on a particular group of students from the
class of 2004 was briefly accessible and that the university's records
indicate fewer than a dozen people viewed the material before the computer
glitch was identified and corrected.
