As the recording industry continues to take copious amounts of legal action against college students for illegal downloading, it has also notched a win in Congress, pushing through a provision in the Higher Education Act that holds colleges more responsible for stopping kids from swapping copyrighted works, the Chronicle of Higher Education reports.
