I certainly hope their computer science majors didn't write the code....

Vassar did it too a few years ago. It seems there's always one school that screws up.

OMG, this is my nightmare of the moment! I'm going back to grad school (as a parent) and the acceptance letters are starting to come in - I live in fear of the fact that my first choice acceptance could have just been a mistake!

Weird--and sorta funny--that the screw-up schools are Carnegie Mellon, Johns Hopkins and MIT.

Ouch! Even these top computer science schools have trouble sending out correct emails.

These awful mistakes are happening too often.
