At the end of 2008, about 50 of the senior staff and students left to form Seppuku Warriors (TANTO), which they described as a PvP-oriented alternative to Eve University.  Their precise motives remain unclear, since they've given a number of mutually contradictory explanations. It's quite possible that the people involved had different motivations, as well.

Among the people who left were Dee Carson, then the Uni's Director of Operations, Sabre A, then ILN Vice Admiral, and m0rd0, then Student Relations Manager.  A significant number of long-term ILN members also left to join the new organization, which was pitched as a more PvP-oriented school, charging tuition and using the directors' personal connections to bring in EvE luminaries from the 0.0 alliances for guest lectures, etc.  This left the Uni with a fairly small number of experienced/high-SP PvPers, compared to the height of the Privateer Wars.
