George Washington University apologizes for tracking students
The educational institution has apologized for failing to notify students, faculty and staff of a data analytics program which monitored their locations.
The university president said the program used data from Cisco WiFi points to “determine density and use of building by students.”
“I want to be clear that even though the technical capacity may exist to track individuals across our campus, such a capacity was not utilized,” the uni president said.
