Whoops! The Princeton Review made a slight mistake when they accidentally published confidential information about tens of thousands of Florida students on its website.
 

Don’t worry though-- the information was only up there for seven weeks. Seven weeks???

According to the New York Times,
 

A flaw in configuring the site allowed anyone to type in a relatively simple Web address and have unfettered access to hundreds of files on the company’s computer network, including educational materials and internal communications.

One file on the site contained information on about 34,000 students in the public schools in Sarasota, Fla., where the Princeton Review was hired to build an online tool to help the county measure students’ academic progress. The file included the students’ birthdays and ethnicities, whether they had learning disabilities, whether English was their second language, and their level of performance on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test, which is given to students in grades 3 to 11.

Well, at least now you can confirm that the idiot in your English class really is an idiot.
 

But more generally, the whole debacle raises questions about the company’s expertise. If you’re not even smart enough to keep some simple information hidden, who are you to be teaching complicated analogies?
