I'm a student at UMD right now, and pretty frustrated to find out about this. IMO, the university should do a lot more than just providing a year's worth of credit monitoring, because once that year is up and people forget/choose not/can't afford to renew, chances are 90% of those records are going to be easy pickings for identity thieves.

300,000 SSN's, names, and DoB's is one helluva haul though. At least no academic records were compromised, god forbid anybody takes a look at my grades before making off with my identity! \s
