Mississippi State University officials are investigating a possible security breach after a computer hacker claimed to break into school computers.

The hacker claims to have access to the user-names, actual names and passwords of 929 students.

A Mississippi State spokesman said steps are being taken to protect the university.

The university reported in a release that no secure data was breached.

It also said the hacker was based in Brazil.

"Cyber-crimes and 'hacking' plague Fortune 500 companies, the federal government, and unfortunately is a reality in higher education as well," said MSU President Mark Keenum.

Ole Miss students to be fined for smoking on campus

Ole Miss officials banned all smoking on university property last August.

The smoke-free policy was phased in during the fall semester with warning-only citations.

The no-smoking policy follows years of campus officials limiting smoking to certain areas on campus.

When students return to campus this month, fines will be handed out if they're caught smoking on campus.

Here's a link with the exact policy from the University of Mississippi website.

There's also a map that shows all the smoke free universities across the country, click here to see it.

There's even a video from the student health center about how to quit, you can see it above.
