Erratum
The Thresher is retracting the usage of the word "fraud" in the March 19 article "Annual Fund monies fraud," following the decision by Vice President for Resource Development Darrow Zeidenstein to send a letter to Martel College parents and alumni explaining the unintentionally misleading machine-generated signature that appeared on a letter previously sent by the Annual Fund in Martel President Sean McBeath's name. The Thresher regrets any mischaracterization that may have occurred.
