  It was a surprisingly reasoned response for officials in my neck of the woods. Oh, and Blackboard makes products!? When did this happen? I thought they only made lawsuits.

    I don't know anyone at a university that doesn't use Blackboard to run at least their online courses.

      ... and despise every minute of it. Ok, so it isn't that bad, but I'm not really surprised a 3rd grader could hack it.

  "In January, students at Churchill High School in Montgomery County broke into their system to change grades, but that involved stolen passwords, not hacking, and did not involve Blackboard, Montgomery police said." Implying that the kid did it technically rather than via social engineering or password theft.
