UCSD Screwed Up Bad!

UC San Diego mistakenly congratulated 29,000 hopeful students admission yesterday as the school sent the letter using the wrong distribution list.

The school's communications office said an e-mail was sent Monday afternoon to all 46,377 students who applied for admission -- including the 29,000 rejects -- welcoming them to the campus.

A few hours later a second email went out apologizing to the students that were mistakenly emailed the letter.

Man, if I was one of those students I would have been really pissed. I would show up the first day of school and demand to get in some classes. If a retail store sends you a coupon by mistake - they have to honor it. Why is this any different?
