EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Michigan State University has warned more 
than 40,000 Wharton Center patrons that a hacker broke into a computer 
server involved in credit card processing for the performing arts 
venue. 

But so far, there has been no indication that credit card data was 
stolen. 

"There's no definitive evidence that credit card data was accessed or 
copied," Kent Love, Wharton Center spokesman, told the Lansing State 
Journal for a Friday story. 

The letter was sent to Wharton visitors who used their credit cards as 
far back as September 2003. 

Love said the intrusion, which is under investigation, was discovered 
April 26.
