Don Rush

The University of Delaware says another 2-thousand individuals were exposed to a hacking operation that broke into the school’s website last month.

That means a total of 74-thousand people who have now been exposed.

University officials say that their review of the incident is now complete.

In mid-July thousands of names, Social Security numbers and university identification numbers were accessed.

The FBI has been contacted to investigate.
