In yesterday's viewpoint "Tufts is a university, not a parent," writer Bosede A. Opetubo was incorrectly identified as a freshman. She is a sophomore.
In yesterday's feature "Please forgive me, Professor, for I have sinned," the study "How religious are America's college and university professors?" was incorrectly identified as being conducted by the Harvard Divinity School. It was conducted by the Harvard Department of Sociology.
The Jan. 18 news article entitled "Jaywalking across the street lands Tufts professor in jail," stated the following: "According to [Professor Felipe] Fernandez-Armesto, an 'overzealous' [Atlanta police officer] Leonpacher then accosted the professor and demanded that he present identification, but Fernandez-Armesto, who had left his green card in his hotel room, refused." After reviewing the previous statement as well as the reporting of the incident from the Associated Press and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Daily concludes that while Fernandez-Armesto did not produce identification after being requested to do so, whether he "refused" to do so remains an allegation by the Atlanta police. In addition, Fernandez-Armesto is currently in the process of acquiring a Tufts University-sponsored green card and did not have one at the time of the incident.
