The state of Conneticut has implemented a sex offender registry that allows the general public to look up sex offenders in their community. It came about when it was exposed that certain CT universities weren’t even asking prospective students if they had been ever convicted of a felony or crime. The problem is the students list Gateway Community College as their addresses which is required of sex offenders. Should colleges prevent students who have sex offender violations from attending university? Let me know in the comments.

Original Story

A TN principal who had been offered a job to become principal at Mt. Diablo Elementary has decided to withdraw his application. Christopher Nugent has a long list of wrong doings, in 2008 he exposed 5000 students SSN’s online. He’s been charged with DUI, resisting arrest and fighting two officers. The problem lies in the fact that noone of these violations or implication showed up on a traditional background check.

yet did not discover the negative information that was readily available in a simple Internet search.
