Correction: Monday, May 2, 2005

An article last week ("Students protest for Asian American studies at Tufts," April 28), misidentified the purpose of the AACT as that of creating an Asian American studies department at Tufts. In fact, AACT has only ever requested that there be a tenured/tenure-track Asian Americanist professor, that University offer more Asian Americanist courses, or that the Asian American studies program exist within another department or major. In addition, the article noted that members of the AACT spoke informally with University Provost Jamshed Bharucha, when in fact the meeting was formal.
