Social Security numbers for over 10,000 current and former students, 
faculty and staff were compromised last month following the theft of two 
University computers, officials said Tuesday.

The computers were stolen from the Yale College Dean.s Office on July 17, 
in only the latest in a series of data security breaches that have plagued
