This actually made local news out here on West Coast. While funny - definitely feel for the kids who maybe saw the email, informed their family, etc. Awful (and stupid) mistake. https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/region-hillsborough/university-of-south-florida-st-petersburg-mistakenly-sends-out-hundreds-of-acceptance-letters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked at USF off and on for years and my wife has worked there since 2005, and I wouldn't have even known about this without your post. I understand it looks bad, but I don't think it's the national disgrace some will try and paint this as. Edited January 23, 2019 by JTrue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens - Ivy league schools have had issues. But man, embarrassing for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
