Two weeks ago, in the special investigation entitled: “The Housing Hustle,”  Brooke Waller’s quote was edited down for clarity. The quote about computer labs was printed as follows:

“It’s still open for us,” said Brooke Waller, junior public relations major and resident assistant for Barbee Hall. “We open, and then lock it back after we’re done. As a student too, I feel it’s a little unfair for those who used the lab properly, especially those without computers.”

The original quote read as follows:

“Due to the discretion of the Barbee Hall housing director, the computer lab was closed due to excessive amounts of trash and stolen property. However, Barbee Hall RA’s are still allowed to use it. We open it and lock it back after we’re done. As a student too, I feel it’s a little unfair for those who used the lab properly, especially those without computers. However, students are informed when they move into Barbee the rules for the computer lab and the consequences that will follow.”

The A&T Register regrets any confusion this may have caused.

Additionally, Waller also spoke on fires saftey.

The quote was printed as follows:

One RA in Barbee has been trained, said Waller. I have only been trained on roommate conflict, and drug and alcohol abuse, I do not even know how to use an (fire) extinguisher.”

The original quote read as follows:

“One RA in Barbee who has been an RA for 3 years now has been trained thoroughly on Fire Safety. I have only been trained on roommate conflict, and drug and alcohol abuse. I have not had to use a fire extinguisher when we had fire drills in Barbee Hall.

The A&T Register regrets any confusion this may have caused.
