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 edu-
cational benefit that are excluded from discharge under 11
U.S.C. § 523(a)(8).
We adopt the opinion of the BAP and affirm its judgment.
