Ah hah, there *is* someone out there actually working on this
stuff.  Then maybe you can explain why the notice at the bottom
of the stuinfo pages prohibits me from letting other people know
what my grades are:

             Data on this system are to be considered
             confidential and may not be made available to a
             third party.

or, if that's not what it means, just what it actually *does*
mean and why it's worded that way.  (I tried to submit this via
the official feedback form once a long time ago, but it didn't
work.)
