CORRECTIONS
In the Sept. 2 edition of The Crimson White, a photo in The Scene was incorrectly labeled. The photo at the bottom of the page was of The Motions playing at Egan’s in May 2009 and was taken by David A. Smith. The Crimson White regrets the error and is happy to set the record straight.
In the Sept. 2 edition of The Crimson White, it was incorrectly reported that Joshua Folmar said most former Al-Qaeda and Taliban members have moved into the Pakistan region, so the soldiers in Iraq are not really dealing with terrorists. Folmar was referencing Afghanistan and not Iraq. The CW regrets the error and is happy to set the record straight.
Student memorial to be held by Denny Chimes
The SGA and the Office of the Dean of students will hold a campus memorial for Nicole Francois, a UA student who died in a car accident Sunday, on Sept. 7 from 7-7:30 p.m. In the event of rain, the event will be relocated to the steps of the Rose Administration Building.
Fall II class registration underway
Registration for the Fall II semester via MyBama will take place until the deadline of Oct. 1. Classes begin on Sept. 27 and end at the same time as regular semester classes, meaning that the Fall II semester is a shorter, 10-week period. Although some classes will take place in a traditional classroom setting, most Fall II classes will be taught online through the College of Continuing Studies. Hours count as part of the maximum course load of 16 hours. Tuition may increase as a result of Fall II courses being added to a schedule; as such, students should go to the student receivables website at http://studentreceivables.ua.edu in order to determine if aid, tuition, or scholarships will be affected. Students receiving federal financial aid should contact the financial aid office before signing up for Fall II classes. For more information, contact Rebecca Pow at 348-6025.
