I proposed the notion of pursuing an institution-wide identity theft management policy and practice at my institution, 
to cover multiple compliance requirements.  In summary, the notion is to require authorization, training, 
certification, audit and periodic renewal of privilege to process SSN, payment instrument account and security numbers, 
etc.  I have been asked if other universities are pursuing this as well.  Please reply directly and let me know if you 
have taken this approach.
