of the front page of last week's Behrend Beacon,
♦preview for the Sons of Gaels group said to turn to the
section on page 10. We neglected to clarify that
is a broad and ancient Gaelic term that roughly
to "the basic ideas, traditions, and beliefs of a
g&Ujp of people." In other terms, "culture."
Wfe sincerely regret the error.
Also, in the first paragraph of the article "Going ’Greener 1 "
that ran on the front page of last week's issue, we stated that
"Waste Management introduced single-stream recycling to
Behrend two summers ago, but recycling bins across cam
pus did not label them as such."
Upon a second reading, the structure of that sentence im
plies that the bins themselves were responsible for not la
beling themselves as single-stream recycling, rather than
anyone else.
The sentient and super-advanced robotic cyberbins have yet
to be deployed across campus.
We sincerely regret the error.
