Purdue University graduate student Roy Sun will serve 90 days in prison and four years of probation for hacking into a professor’s computer and changing his grades, reports the

Sun admitted in court that he became cocky after he changed his grade the first time in 2008 and didn’t get caught.
“When I came back in 2009, I felt really arrogant. I thought I was untouchable,” he said.
Sujay Sharma, who served as a lookout while Sun tampered with the professor’s computer, received three years probation.
A third suspect, Mitsutoashi Shirasaki, has fled to Japan.
