Errors In the article on the Transitional Program and the Catamount Corral which ran several weeks ago in The Western Carolinian an error was made. The article stated that the remedial courses required by the program counted towards meeting general education requirements. This is incorrect. According to Dr. Marilyn Jody, director of Special Academic Programs, the courses "do carry academic credit but do not count toward meeting general education requirements." We regret the error.
