“Unfortunately, misinformation about the extent of the problem is causing unnecessary concern among students and graduates whose privacy has not been compromised,” said Steve Henson, associate dean of the College of Business. People who were not students in the College of Business are not involved in this incident, and, certainly, not all WCU students and graduates are involved. “We are notifying all of the people whose identifying information might have been at risk. No one else needs to be worried about this situation,” Henson said.
Anyone with questions about the data security breach in the College of Business, should call the dean’s office at (828) 227-7412.
