Anyone in the field will tell you that this is an absolute disaster of a post because it sends the signal to other young aspiring cybersecurity professionals that this is OK, and the school will laugh it off, and you'll be seen as an adorable Matthew Broderick type Wargames character. I can't overemphasize how far this is from the truth in 2021.

Or maybe it will shame other IT departments into not having a stick up their butt. Especially if there is already a culture of overlooking minor criminal activity in the name of harmless pranks.
