OPINION
PER CURIAM.
Ohio University appeals the judgment of the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel (BAP) discharging Hawkins from a debt resulting from a judgment against her for breach of contract with the university. The BAP held that this debt and the resulting judgment did not meet the criteria for a loan or educational benefit that are excluded from discharge under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a) (8).
We adopt the opinion of the BAP, which is reported at 317 B.R. 104, and affirm its judgment.
