California's law affects any school that enrolls students from California 
that *might* have been affected by a data breach.  What's the chances that 
a large school has zero students from California?

I missed the first part of this lovely conversation, but I gather the IT 
department was non-responsive?  Does the school have a computer security 
department?  If so, have you contact them?

Feel free to contact me privately if you prefer.
