CORRECTION
The March 22 edition of the Daily Trojan contained an error. In the article “USC holds first human rights conference,” the Daily Trojan misquoted Mike Brand as saying that “The development on campus is a really great example of grad students and GAPA coming together to work on such important issues.” The students are working together on important issues and GAPA is an example of grassroots, top-level advocacy.
The Daily Trojan regrets the error.
