College misprints number; sex hotline called

International students may be getting the wrong idea about Seton Hall University after a misprinted phone number.

Applications sent to overseas students interested in the New Jersey Catholic university contain a wrong number. Instead of getting information about the school, callers hear a pitch for a phone sex line featuring, quote, "hot, horny girls."

Seton Hall spokesman Thomas White tells the Star-Ledger of Newark that the typo in the toll-free number has apparently been on the application for years, but no one caught it until now.

Seton Hall calls it "very unfortunate" and apologizes for any confusion or embarrassment. The school has corrected the phone number on its website. But officials say there's nothing they can do about the thousands of applications that have already been mailed. Article here.
