Yet despite a number of mix-ups at various institutions, students do not seem to be too skeptical of the admissions e-mails they receive. John W.

"We hope this tide of opposition to criminal behavior will lead to the release of all other hostages as well," he said. "The Christian Science Monitor will not let these people be forgotten.
