the times takes complaints about editorial content seriously. we are committed to abiding by the independent press standards organisation rules and regulations and the editors’ code of practice that ipso enforces. requests for corrections should be sent to feedback@thetimes.co.uk or to feedback, the times, 1 london bridge street, london se1 9gf february 7, 2025the fashion designer alice temperley does not live in bruton, somerset, as we suggested (it’s ‘post posh’: how bruton became britain’s montecito, times2, feb 5); she lives a 45 minute drive away. we are happy to make this clear. february 6, 2025the independent review of valdo calocane’s care revealed 15 “extremely serious” acts of violence, including stabbings, involving patients at nottinghamshire healthcare nhs foundation trust between 2019 and 2023. those acts were not committed by calocane, as we wrongly said (news, feb 5). the mistake was introduced in editing. in the case of kireeva v bedzhamov, the supreme court’s judgment was given by lord lloyd jones and lord richards, not lord leggatt and lady simler as we wrongly said (law report, feb 3). february 3, 2025an article on admiral taverns was wrongly illustrated with a picture of the mayfly pub in stockbridge, hampshire (business, feb 3). the mayfly is owned by fuller’s. february 3, 2025a blackboard used by albert einstein is on display in oxford at the history of science museum, not rhodes house as we wrongly said (leading article, feb 1). february 2, 2025 a petition urging sutton council to divest from companies supplying the israeli military was not submitted on holocaust memorial day as we said (news, jan 28). it was heard at a scheduled council meeting that day but had been submitted earlier. we said that the japanese had never apologised properly for sexual enslavement of korean women in the second world war (leading article, jan 28). in fact successive japanese prime ministers from 1995 have sent letters of apology to former “comfort women” and the issue was “resolved finally and irreversibly” with an agreement between japan and south korea in december 2015. february 1, 2025in saturday’s magazine, we refer to victoria cipriani as danny cipriani’s ex wife. although she filed for divorce in august, the couple are still married. january 27, 2025we wrongly said that a study on behalf of thames water showed “1 in 12 londoners is an illegal migrant” (news, jan 23). in fact the study covered only 7 million people in specific “water resource zones”, not the whole population of london, which is closer to 9 million. 1 in 12 was the highest of a range of estimates for the proportion of “irregular migrants”, but these estimates included some people who are not illegal immigrants, such as those given indefinite leave to remain, as well as some british born children of migrants with irregular status. january 24, 2025we said that “on average women still earn 13 per cent less an hour than men, according to the office for national statistics” (news, jan 23). in fact the figure for full time median earnings excluding overtime is 7 per cent. the mistake was introduced in editing. january 20, 2025we said (comment, jan 10) that a law commission report on surrogacy proposed “lowering the minimum age [of surrogates] to 21 and removing the important condition to protect a woman’s physical and mental wellbeing that she must already have her own child”. in fact there is no minimum age at present and no requirement for a surrogate to be a mother already: the report recommends introducing a minimum age of 21 but no change on the latter point. january 17, 2025asked whether the uk should be forced to take back british isis prisoners (world, jan 8), donald trump’s incoming director of counterterrorism sebastian gorka replied: “any nation which wishes to be seen to be a serious ally and friend of the most powerful nation in the world should act in a fashion that reflects that serious commitment.” he made no mention of keir starmer or shamima begum. we are happy to make this clear. january 16, 2025we said (sport, jan 13) dame tracey crouch had “intimated” that a sport regulator would have stopped the saudi takeover of newcastle. in fact she said, when asked in 2021, “i certainly can’t tell you whether or not this integrity test would have stopped the newcastle takeover. i don’t know the details of it. but i would say that it would certainly have stress tested it more and it would have been more transparent in that testing.” we are happy to make this clear. january 14, 2025in an article headlined “law firm rejects accusations over bhp settlement” (business, nov 6) we suggested that pogust goodhead might for financial reasons be improperly pressuring its clients to reject a settlement offer in relation to the ongoing high court litigation against bhp concerning the mariana dam collapse. that suggestion was untrue and we apologise to pogust goodhead. we have agreed to pay them damages and legal costs. january 11, 2025taunton school is not passing on the full 20 per cent vat on fees as we said but rather keeping fee increases below 10 per cent (news, jan 4). we apologise for the mistake. it was in 2015 that stonewall announced it would focus on trans rights, not 2004 as we wrongly said (comment, jan 8). we apologise for the mistake. january 9, 2025we reported barbara mills kc, the new head of the bar council, as saying that the judiciary “isn’t too white and too male” (law, jan 9). in fact she said, when asked if the bench was too white and too male, “i’d put it another way: it isn’t too anything.” january 8, 2025we said that to become pope requires a simple majority of cardinals in a papal conclave (comment, jan 6). this was once the case but since 2007 a two thirds majority has been required. we said the sculptor anne curry was married to david curry (news, jan 6). we have been asked to make clear that the couple are still married, and we are happy to do so. a photograph showed newton ferrers, devon, not nearby noss mayo as the caption wrongly said (weekend, jan 4). january 7, 2025an article on the two candidates for leadership of the muslim council for britain wrongly suggested both had praised iran (news, dec 6). dr wajid akhter has not expressed such views. we have further been informed that dr akhter did not, as originally reported, say new year celebrations “usually” involve “un islamic practices”, but that they “may” do so. we are happy to make this clear. january 6, 2025humanae vitae, the papal encyclical on birth control, was issued by pope paul vi, not pope john vi as we wrongly said (david lodge obituary, jan 4). january 3, 2025we wrongly said the fastest growing group among the economically inactive were those including mental health disorders in their claim for a personal independence payment (comment, aug 19). while such claims have risen, not all claimants are economically inactive and it does not follow that they are the fastest growing group within the economically inactive cohort. this correction is published following an upheld ruling by the independent press standards organisation. december 30, 2024 a photo in world news (“the resourceful ‘lord’ rebooting the rhine one castle at a time”, dec 26) showed katz castle, not rheinstein castle as we said. we said homeowners with solar panels can make 4.1p per kwh of electricity exported back to the national grid (news, dec 28). in fact many rates are available, currently ranging from 1p to more than 25p. december 27, 2024an obituary of hazel, 10th baroness howard de walden (dec 27), was wrongly illustrated with a photograph of gillian, lady howard de walden, widow of the 9th baron. we apologise for the mistake. december 23, 2024we said that yuan yi zhu in a book review called some of the contributors to a volume of essays “self discrediting and morally bankrupt” (news, dec 20). professor zhu has informed us that in fact he described only one contributor in those terms. december 21, 2024we said the coroner shirley radcliffe contacted chelsea and westminster hospital to raise concerns about an investigation into the death of hayden nguyen (news, dec 18). while the coroner’s office did make such contact, dr radcliffe has informed us she was not responsible. we are happy to put this on record. december 20, 2024a photograph showed rushanara ali mp, not tulip siddiq mp as the caption wrongly said (business, dec 18). this was due to an agency error. december 16, 2024we wrongly said greenpeace had incurred $11 million in legal costs for a case against shell (business, dec 11). this was the amount the group might have paid if they had lost the case, which was settled out of court. december 15, 2024a photograph on page 4 (dec 13) showed choristers from gloucester cathedral, not winchester cathedral as we said. gloucester cathedral’s carol services are on dec 22 and 23. december 12, 2024we said that some vegan substitutes were worse for the planet than meat and dairy (news, dec 5). while vegan processed food compared badly with vegan whole food on environmental grounds, it rated worse than meat and dairy only when factors such as cost were taken into account. december 11, 2024we wrongly said the vast majority of the extra £3.4 billion scotland will receive from the most recent budget comes from english taxpayers (comment, dec 9). in fact 89 per cent is funded by scottish taxpayers. december 10, 2024in acknowledging that we had wrongly referred to “wrangling 6.9 million people on sickness benefits back to work” (corrections and clarifications, dec 9), we failed to make clear that only a minority of those claiming disability benefits are both of working age and out of work. december 9, 2024we wrongly referred to the government’s task of “wrangling 6.9 million people on sickness benefits back to work” (comment, dec 6). while 6.9 million claim disability benefits, such benefits are also available to employed people. november 22, 2024 an article about mayo walters, who died at dignitas in april, wrongly described her as having been the first female judge in kenya (news, nov 16). in fact it was stated in her eulogy that she was the first white female magistrate in nairobi. we are happy to put this on record. november 11, 2024an article on the reopened investigation into the death of jeannette may (nee bishop) referred to telegrams purporting to link her to a robbery at christie’s, and said she knew the antiques dealer sergio vaccari (news, nov 5). in fact the police concluded the telegrams were a hoax, and ties between may and vaccari were ruled out at an inquest. we are happy to make this clear. november 9, 2024we wrongly said that jacqueline aston “lost her job” at a care home after she was found guilty of three charges of stalking (news, oct 25). she resigned of her own volition. november 8, 2024we said it was not lady carbisdale but another woman who was given a police warning after a disturbance in the aftermath of a council meeting (magazine, oct 12). we have since been provided with evidence suggesting this was inaccurate. we are happy to set this on record. november 7, 2024we wrongly suggested that resolutions on rewilding and pride events, which were rejected at an annual general meeting of the national trust, were proposed by the group restore trust (news, nov 2). the group’s candidates stood for election to the national trust council at the meeting, but it did not put forward the resolutions. november 6, 2024we quoted concerns that a ship carrying potentially explosive material was docked by a nuclear power station at great yarmouth (news, nov 2). the town’s power station runs on gas, not nuclear fuel. november 2, 2024a production error led to three pictures being placed next to the wrong caption in “joe’s favourite lime green plants” in today’s weekend section. the plant at the top right is euphorbia palustris (spurge); the middle picture is cotinus coggygria ‘golden spirit’ (smoke bush); and the bottom right is heuchera ‘lime marmalade’ (coral bells). november 1, 2024 in “debate over class action funding”, (law, oct 3), we stated that the law firm pogust goodhead had made a typographical error in its retainer with its clients which meant it would cap its fees at 50 per cent rather than 35 per cent. in fact, the typographical error was in one place and all other references were to the correct fee cap of 50 per cent. we also said that the high court criticised and reduced the firm’s costs of £343 million when in fact the judge did not single out pogust goodhead and this figure actually represented the overall costs and disbursements sought by all 19 claimant law firms in the case. pogust goodhead has asked us to point out that the defendants’ costs were also significantly reduced. we apologise for the errors and have made a payment to pogust goodhead which it intends to donate to the access to justice foundation. we reported sarah wright as saying residents refused to pay for repairs to whitebarns lane in hertfordshire (news, oct 30). in fact she said they cannot afford to. we are happy to make this clear. october 31, 2024we suggested ben delo of bitmex had been indicted in a us court and that certain findings of fact had been made against him (news, apr 12). it has been pointed out to us, and we accept, that this was incorrect. the hearing in question concerned a civil claim against hdr global trading limited and others, including mr delo, and concerned the question of whether the new york court had jurisdiction over mr delo. we are happy to clarify that the us court made no finding of fact in the hearing against mr delo and expressed no view on the merits of the civil claim. we apologise to mr delo for the errors and distress caused and are happy to set the record straight. october 25, 2024the recipe for mary berry’s all in one victoria sponge requires 225g self raising flour, not 22g as we said (weekend, oct 18). october 22, 2024statutory maternity and paternity pay can be reclaimed by employers from the government, but not sick pay as we said (law, oct 17). an open letter from health professionals cited claims that the nhs could save £18.8 billion per year if a plant based diet were adopted by the whole population of england. the figure did not refer only to people in hospitals as we wrongly said (news, oct 21). october 19, 2024the children of women sent to prison are at an increased risk of justice involvement but are not more than twice as likely to end up in jail as we said (news, sep 28). october 17, 2024we said betting companies had donated £1.08 million to labour (comment, oct 15). in fact £1 million of the money was from a former casino entrepreneur who now campaigns for gambling reform. the latest gambling commission figure for problem gamblers aged 11 17 is 40,000, not 55,000 as we said. the betting and gaming council has asked us to make clear that the commission’s figures relate to problem gambling, a sub clinical classification indicating loss of control and the presence of adverse consequences from gambling, not gambling addiction, which is a recognised mental health disorder requiring diagnosis by a healthcare professional. october 16, 2024we said bbc arabic and bbc persian had been closed down (editorial, oct 14). in fact only the radio stations were cut; the tv channels and online services are still available. october 12, 2024we apologise for a production error that has left the codeword on p46 of today’s mindgames incomplete. october 7, 2024photographs of an apparent confrontation between sue gray and michael bourke in the no 10 downing street garden were taken by a freelance photographer, not by a no 10 insider as we wrongly suggested (news, oct 7). october 2, 2024necrotising fasciitis is caused by a bacterial infection, not a virus as a headline wrongly said (news, oct 1). a story on flooding in the coastal village of golspie, sutherland, was wrongly illustrated with a photograph of crovie, aberdeenshire (news, scotland, sep 30). october 1, 2024we wrongly said dame elizabeth esteve coll was the first female vice chancellor of a traditional british university when she took up the position at the university of east anglia in 1995 (obituary, sep 25). dame lillian penson became vice chancellor of the university of london in 1948. september 14, 2024in peter sidwell’s sourdough bread recipe (magazine, page 35) we omitted the strong white flour in the method. step 2 should read: add the remaining white flour, plus the wholemeal or rye flour and the seeds to the bowl and, using your hands or a dough hook, mix until it forms a soft ball. we apologise for the error. september 13, 2024a headline wrongly said britain was “spending less than romania on early education” (news, sep 11). in fact, as the article made clear, britain spends less than the oecd average but more than romania. september 12, 2024a photo of a touring production of birdsong showed charlie russell with james esler, not max bowden as we said (news, sep 11). we said the islamic students association of britain (isab) had been reported by the bbc to have promoted several events marking the death of the islamic revolutionary guard corps (irgc) commander qasem soleimani (news, feb 14). while the isab promoted two online talks by active and retired members of the irgc, and on january 5 organised an in person protest at the us embassy against soleimani’s assassination, the organisation says it had no involvement with a vigil held at its west london base later the same day, at which chants of “death to israel” were heard. we are happy to put this on record. september 4, 2024ajay chowdhury is a former editor of the journal of the james bond international fan club, not a former president of the organisation as we said (news, sep 2). august 30, 2024a story about the sighting of a ghost orchid in herefordshire (news, aug 28) wrongly said the flower was native to florida. the error was introduced in the editing process. august 29, 2024 the viking onshore wind farm will power half a million homes on the british mainland, not on the shetland islands as we said (“britain ‘must speed up clean energy’”, business, aug 29). august 28, 2024an item on diving holidays was illustrated with a photograph of the azure window rock arch on the coast of gozo (travel, aug 24). the formation collapsed in 2017. august 21, 2024a project to reintroduce traditional all female yue opera to shanghai received funding from uk research and innovation, not the british council as we said (news, aug 21). august 19, 2024 we wrongly said that personal independence payment is for people who are medically unfit for work, and that gps acted as gatekeepers for the benefit (comment, aug 19). the benefit is also available to those in work and gps do not decide on eligibility. august 17, 2024we said the uk council for psychotherapy had apologised for terminating the membership of the gender critical trainee therapist james esses, and had admitted wrongdoing (news, aug 17). this was incorrect: the ukcp has not apologised or admitted any wrongdoing. a photograph illustrating a good walk (weekend, aug 17) showed fountains hall, not markenfield hall as the caption wrongly said. august 16, 2024an article on the sentences handed down to just stop oil protesters said the offence of public nuisance required that offenders’ actions must cause or risk harm to the public (comment, aug 16). in fact the relevant act also covers obstructing the public in the exercise of their rights, and it was this element that was cited in the charges against the protesters. we are happy to make this clear. august 15, 2024a picture accompanying our article on the wreck of the earl of abergavenny (news, aug 14) showed not john wordsworth who captained the ship but an anglican bishop of the same name. in “founder accused of insider dealing raises stake in firm” (aug 15), we reported that sara murray of big technologies is at the centre of a high court battle over alleged insider dealing. in fact the claim is a claim under the companies act for rectification and damages following alleged misrepresentations by ms murray. ms murray is not a party to the proceedings. we are happy to correct the record. august 11, 2024an obituary of frederick crews contained errors (aug 7). sigmund freud altered his theories in 1897, not 1987; and crews alleged that freud accepted only american clients after the first world war, not the second world war. the photograph in our birthdays tomorrow column on saturday (aug 10) showed not joe jackson the musician as we said, but the father of michael jackson. we apologise for the mistake. august 7, 2024an article by michael johnson on olympic athletics was wrongly credited in some editions to michael jordan (sport, aug 6). we apologise for the mistake. august 6, 2024we wrongly referred to a salary threshold at which the spouses of legal migrants can legally settle in britain (leading article, aug 6). the threshold applies to the incomes of british citizens wishing to sponsor a foreign spouse. the result of a women’s hockey olympic quarter final match was netherlands 3 great britain 1, not a 1 1 draw as we said (sport, aug 6). july 24, 2024we reported that the dismissed police officer james endean had been a white ribbon champion (news, jul 23). he had acted as such during a thames valley police awareness week, but the charity white ribbon uk say he held no such position with them. we are happy to make this clear. july 17, 2024we wrongly attributed to the hungarian prime minister viktor orban a comment made to the bbc about hungary’s policy on ukraine (leading article, jul 16). the comment was made by the hungarian government spokesman zoltan kovacs, who says his words were taken out of context. we are happy to make this clear.july 4, 2024our obituary of david coumbe (register, jun 29) stated he was an only child. in fact he had a sister, maureen, who survives him. we apologise for the error. july 2, 2024we wrongly said that keir starmer worked as a barrister on the 1993 appeals of earl pratt and ivan morgan, who were held on death row in jamaica (news, july 1). he worked on the linked cases of four other death row inmates whose appeals were heard at that time. june 28, 2024a graph comparing the performance of alliance trust and witan (business, jun 27) transposed the two companies’ share prices. june 15, 2024 we wrongly attributed to grace o’malley kumar’s mother, sinéad o’malley, a statement by barnaby webber’s mother, emma webber, about receiving a letter from the family of valdo calocane, the killer of their children (news, jun 14). we apologise for the error. june 2, 2024 in recording eva petulengro’s surviving children, we failed to mention her son bradley (obituary, may 30). we apologise for the omission. may 31, 2024 we said a theatre show to be funded by creative scotland would have charged people £270 a day to take part in sex acts in the highlands (news, may 31). in fact this was the daily rate performers would have been paid. may 29, 2024the liberal democrats had 15 mps in parliament, not 14 as we wrongly said (news, may 23).may 27, 2024lord rees of ludlow is 81, not 95 as we wrongly said (news, may 27). may 26, 2024 a report on james allen’s girls’ school was wrongly illustrated in the print edition with a picture of dulwich college (news, may 25). may 24, 2024we said ben delo of the crypto asset exchange bitmex was being indicted in a us court and certain findings of fact were made against him (news, apr 12). in fact the ruling solely concerned a decision on jurisdiction in a civil claim. mr delo was not indicted and no findings of fact were made against him. we apologise for the errors. may 23, 2024in a live blog reporting remarks made by paul johnson, director of the institute for fiscal studies, we said that tony blair and gordon brown knew about the infected blood scandal and “deliberately decided not to do anything about it” (digital editions, may 20). while mr johnson spoke about the knowledge and conduct of ministers during the blair brown years, based on his own experience in the treasury at the time, he did not single out either mr blair or mr brown. we are happy to make this clear.may 22, 2024we reported claims that the covid inquiry, which has cost £94 million so far, is ten times more expensive than the leveson inquiry (news, may 15). in fact the leveson inquiry cost £5.6 million. we are happy to make this clear. may 10, 2024we said that brian altman kc admitted he was “catastrophically incorrect” to clear post office executives of wrongdoing (news, may 9). in fact he used those words to describe faulty information on which he based his 2013 review. we are also happy to clarify that he carried out a review of the post office’s strategy and processes for reviewing the prosecutions, not a review of the prosecutions themselves. may 7, 2024a report on protests at cambridge university included quotes from a demonstrator who claimed to be mahmoud atallah, a student at lucy cavendish college (news, may 7). the college has informed us it has no student of that name. we are happy to put this on record. may 5, 2024we wrongly said that anita pallenberg was the wife of two members of the rolling stones (saturday review, may 4). pallenberg had long term relationships with brian jones and keith richards, but did not marry either. may 3, 2024the kingdom built by herod was not the first jewish state in israel, as we wrongly say in the headline to simon sebag montefiore’s review of herod the great by martin goodman (saturday review, may 4). april 29, 2024britain’s highest decoration for civilian or non operational gallantry is the george cross, not the george medal as we said (world, apr 27). april 20, 2024 we wrongly attributed a complaint about amol rajan’s pronunciation of “aitch” to edwina smart of eastleigh (news, apr 9). we apologise for the error. april 10, 2024we have been asked to make clear that, while the rspca and wwf are members of wildlife and countryside link (wcl), they were not involved in statements concerning ethnic minorities in the countryside that were made by wcl to a parliamentary group (news, feb 9). we are happy to put this on record. april 4, 2024the police are testing 6,000 suspects a month for drugs, not 30,000 as we said (news, apr 3). march 21, 2024we apologise for the printing error that led to the duplication of page 63 in some editions. march 18, 2024in reporting a call for a boycott of scottish farmed salmon, we failed to include a response provided by the body representing the industry (news, mar 15). scottish salmon’s position is that “scottish salmon farmers provide the highest welfare standards anywhere in the world for the animals in their care, and are independently certified by rspca assured.” we are happy to put this on record. in a letter on assisted dying (mar 14), baroness hollins wrote “the recent health and social care select committee report recommended: ‘it is essential to uphold the commitment to universal access to palliative care in the health and care act before further consideration is given to changing the law’.” we have been asked to make clear that the words summarised her understanding of the select committee’s recommendations and were not a verbatim quotation from its report. march 15, 2024an interview with earl spencer in the magazine today mistakenly says he was in the bullingdon club at oxford. in fact he was invited to join but turned it down. it is the gender identity development service at the tavistock centre that is closing at the end of the month, not the tavistock centre itself as we said in a caption in our digital edition (news, mar 12). march 8, 2024due to a late schedule change by channel 4, the film 20 days in mariupol will now be shown on monday at 10.30pm and not on thursday as printed in today’s review section. march 6, 2024we said lloyds and halifax share the same financial services compensation scheme licence (money, mar 2). this was incorrect: the banks have separate licences, each of which protects up to £85,000 of customer deposits. we wrongly said paolo fresia is a member of patriotic millionaires (luxx, mar 2). while he has sympathy with many of the organisation’s aims, he is not a member. march 1, 2024we wrongly attributed an observation about the cost of living to abigail morris, the lead singer in the band the last dinner party, who was educated at bedales (“is there a future for bands? why i fear for rock’n’roll”, times2, feb 29). in fact our interviewer was speaking to georgia davies, the band’s bassist. we apologise for the error. february 29, 2024in “revealed: the middlemen ripping off foreign workers for care visas” (online, feb 23, and in print under the headline “foreign care workers are ripped off by visa agents”, news, feb 24) we mistakenly published an image of yash dubal, director and senior immigration associate at ay & j solicitors. we confirm that neither mr dubal nor his firm has any connection with the issues raised in the article and we apologise for the error. february 23, 2024in “former lawyer must repay saudi princess millions he spent on yacht” (online, feb 21) we mistakenly published a picture of the cruise yacht elysium, owned by elixir cruises, and not the motor yacht elysium that is the subject of the legal proceedings against ronald gibbs. we confirm that the former has no connection with the ongoing dispute and we apologise for the error. february 22, 2024cs venkatakrishnan, the barclays chief executive, was paid £5.2 million in 2022, not £5.2 billion as we wrongly said (business, feb 22). february 21, 2024we wrongly said in a caption (business, feb 21) that frasers group is suing morgan stanley over a $1 million cash demand. the correct figure is £1 billion. february 15, 2024andrew saunders is an analyst at shore capital, not peel hunt as we wrongly said (“picking out some hot properties”, business, feb 15). february 15, 2024we reported that an article in a withdrawn issue of the royal society of literature’s magazine referred to “the israeli war machine” (“war of wisely chosen words at literature’s royal society”, news, feb 3). while the article in question referred to “the devastating machinery of the israeli state in operation: the armed checkpoints, apartheid road systems, arbitrary identity checks against palestinian children and other violent structural harms”, the rsl has asked us to make clear that the phrase “israeli war machine” was not used. february 14, 2024the walls of the small modular reactor pressure vessel built by sheffield forgemasters are 20 centimetres thick, not 2 centimetres as we wrongly said (business, feb 12). february 13, 2024marcel anisfeld (obituary, feb 13) is also survived by his daughters suzanne and candice in addition to his wife, irene, son lance and daughter sharon. february 11, 2024we wrongly described celia kitzinger as a professor of psychology at the university of york and a campaigner for assisted dying (catholic neurologist cleared of letting faith prejudice court evidence, news, feb 8). she is a retired professor of sociology and campaigns to promote advance decisions on refusing treatment. february 7, 2024an opinion column stated that a government commissioned report into the teesworks development “contradicted several linchpin claims made in private eye” about the project, including on the sale of land and dividends received by business partners (juliet samuel, “rare tory success offers model for the future”, comment, jan 31). this was incorrect. while the report provided context on deals related to the land sale and use of dividends that in our opinion justifies a more positive view than was taken by private eye, we accept that it did not contradict claims made by the magazine. february 3, 2024we wrongly say in the magazine today (“why everyone wants what he’s having”) that st john, smithfield, is run by fergus and margot henderson and trevor gulliver. margot henderson has no affiliation with the restaurant. january 22, 2024while peter neumann, professor of security studies at king’s college london, has taught students on a king’s counter terrorism course, he is not the “course director” as we wrongly said (news, jan 17, 18). we are happy to make this clear. january 4, 2024we referred to claims made against the late greville janner “and other unconvicted sex offenders” (comment, dec 29). while lord janner of braunstone was charged with 22 offences relating to nine complainants, he died before the offences could be tried. we are happy to make this clear. january 3, 2024a book review referring to mary wollstonecraft was wrongly illustrated with a portrait of her daughter, mary shelley (saturday review, dec 30). december 31, 2023an article about rolls royce, the aerospace engineer, was wrongly illustrated with a photograph of a rolls royce car. the motor manufacturer is a separate unrelated company. december 22, 2023in an article about a sponsorship deal with the science museum (dec 5) we stated that its chief executive would no longer be involved in decisions over the ethics of sponsorship deals. we have been asked by the science museum’s chair to clarify that, while the ceo is not part of a new advisory group that reviews the ethics of those deals, he remains involved in decisions taken by the board of trustees. we are happy to do so. december 19, 2023the name of sir tim brighouse’s first wife was mary demer, not mary demmers as we wrongly said (obituaries, dec 19). december 18, 2023the world vapers’ alliance did not hand out free e cigarettes from its “vape bus”, as we wrongly said (news, dec 14 & 15). it gave out free branded merchandise such as hats and mugs. december 8, 2023we wrongly said that the county councils network (cnn) had claimed middle class parents are to blame for councils’ budget crises (comment, dec 7). while individual council sources may have made such claims, we have been asked to make clear that this is not the position of the cnn. december 7, 2023we said that benefit fraudsters make up 2 per cent of the uk’s annual fraud and tax fraudsters 69 per cent (magazine, dec 2). the latest figures put benefit fraud at £6.4bn and the “tax gap” (the amount of tax going unpaid) at £35.8bn. the latter figure includes tax lost to error, legal avoidance and all kinds of non compliance, as well as fraud. we are happy to make this clear. december 4, 2023reporting the acquittal of chris mceleny on charges of causing a disturbance (scotland, dec 1), we referred in a headline to a claim heard in court that some of mr mceleny’s evidence was “unreliable and not credible”. as the accompanying article explained, the claim about mr mceleny’s evidence was made by the fiscal depute prosecuting the case. we are happy to make this clear. december 1, 2023a letter published on nov 28 said 63 per cent of london’s population were born overseas. in fact 41 per cent were born overseas and 63 per cent are from ethnic minorities. november 27, 2023we reported a suggestion from a botanist in south africa (news, november 23) that the royal botanic gardens, kew, should repatriate some specimens from its herbarium instead of moving them to reading. kew has asked us to make clear that the national heritage act 1983 limits trustees’ abilities to “repatriate or otherwise dispose of” items in its collections, and that its herbarium will remain fully accessible to staff, students and visiting researchers. november 18, 2023in an article on the cricket world cup (sport, nov 15) we reported that “it was rumoured that a few [england] players had to be helped on to the plane for their evening flight after the farewell do”. the professional cricketers association has stated that: “the players were not drinking alcohol and they all left early to catch their flight in a professional manner.” we are happy to make this clear. we wrongly said the uk’s october inflation figure had yet to be published (news, nov 17). the figure of 4.6 per cent had been released on nov 15. november 6, 2023we said the founders of marks and spencer were zionist jews (comment, nov 4). michael marks was a zionist jew; thomas spencer was not jewish. we said frank sinatra sang my way at government house in nairobi in 1952 (comment, nov 4). in fact sinatra’s performance did not include the song, which was not released until 1969. november 4, 2023our obituary for jennifer white shah (register, nov 2) was wrongly illustrated with a photo of nanette newman. we apologise for the error. october 31, 2023we said andy mcdonald mp chanted, “between the river and the sea, palestine will be free,” at a rally (news, oct 30). in fact he said, “until all people, israelis and palestinians, between the river and the sea, can live in peaceful liberty.” we apologise for the error. october 28, 2023the royal conservatoire of scotland is in glasgow, not edinburgh as we wrongly suggested (times2, oct 26). october 27, 2023we said a case on the legality of the rwanda scheme would be heard by the european court of human rights next month (comment, oct 26). in fact the case will be heard by the uk supreme court in november: a related case may be put before the echr at a later date. october 26, 2023an opinion column referred to reports that women in labour in scotland might no longer be offered entonox for pain relief (magazine, oct 21). nhs scotland has informed us that no such proposal is being considered. we are happy to put this on record. october 20, 2023we wrongly said life expectancy in scotland had fallen by 4.4 years over the past decade (leading article, oct 18). the latest national records of scotland figures for life expectancy at birth in scotland show a decrease of 0.1 years between 2010 12 and 2020 22. a thunderer column on “the death of handwriting” (comment, oct 18) wrongly said ofqual had given permission for some gcse exams to be taken on laptops. in fact the regulator has yet to see detailed proposals from the aqa exam board. we are happy to make this clear. october 17, 2023a headline said “pret’s food goes up five times more than rivals” (news, sep 27). the article compared price rises on specific pret a manger items with the average rise in takeaway sandwiches over the last year. pret a manger says its average price rise was substantially less than the headline suggested. we are happy to make this clear.. october 13, 2023the protester who threw glitter on sir keir starmer was from people demand democracy, not make votes count as we wrongly said (comment, oct 12). october 12, 2023akshata murty is now paying uk taxes on worldwide income because she no longer claims the “remittance basis”, but she has not given up her non dom status as we wrongly said (news, sep 28). october 11, 2023we said a video appearance by andrey kurkov at the lviv bookforum was cancelled (news, oct 7). in fact the event went ahead despite online protests. october 4, 2023we said a doctor was paid £7,853 to cover a shift at the walton centre, a neurology unit in liverpool (news, oct 2). the hospital now says it misinterpreted the times freedom of information request, and that the highest rate paid for a 24 hour shift was £2,840. october 2, 2023a thunderer column on the cost of net zero cited findings from a report by civitas (comment, sep 27). civitas has since withdrawn the report, which was found to contain factual errors. the scottish government has not published plans to massively expand cage capacity for farmed salmon, as we wrongly said (times earth, sep 21). a statement in the same article that farmed salmon live short, unhealthy lives reported the view of some environmentalists and we are happy to make this clear. mrs justice roberts was determining the mental capacity of sudiksha thirumalesh to challenge doctors’ views about her treatment, not imposing an anonymity order as we wrongly said. the wide ranging transparency order governing the case had already been imposed by mr justice francis and was not in issue (corrections & clarifications, sep 27). september 30, 2023an article on the conscious advertising network (can) referred to “the campaign’s boycotts” of advertising platforms (news, aug 21). the claim that can organises boycotts was made by a group of conservative mps. can says it has never organised or called for boycotts and the allegation is untrue. we are happy to make this clear. september 28, 2023xlcc plans to produce subsea electricity cables that would incur power losses of only 3 per cent per 620 miles, not 62 miles as we wrongly stated (“subsea cable factory lays out £1.4bn bid”, business, sep 26). the mistake was due to an editing error. september 26, 2023an anonymity order in the case of sudiksha thirumalesh was imposed by mrs justice roberts, not mr justice roberts as we wrongly said (news, sep 23). we wrongly said that the uk’s first vegetarian restaurant was on carnaby street in the 1960s (news, sep 23). in fact vegetarian restaurants have existed here for more than a century. a photograph with the same article showed a carnaby street fashion event in paris, not the street itself. september 22, 2023we wrongly said that british tourists need an international driving permit to drive in spain (world news, sep 16), although some fines have been issued in error by local police. september 20, 2023we said the eu was working on an agreement that meant each member state would take a minimum of 30,000 migrants annually, and that richer member states would have to accept up to 120,000 migrants per year (news, sep 13 & 15). in fact those minimum and maximum figures would apply across eu members, with the larger states taking a greater share. september 19, 2023we wrongly said that mohammad hussain ataee, a former official with the islamic students association of britain, talked with ezzatollah zarghami, a general in iran’s revolutionary guard (news, aug 5). no such meeting took place. august 28, 2023extracts from unstoppable by mark hughes (sport, aug 20 & 21) were abridged and edited for serialisation, not taken verbatim from the published book. online versions of the extracts have since been amended to reflect the author’s exact wording throughout. august 26, 2023in an article first published on december 19, 2022, under the headline “labour selects miners scandal lawyer”, we incorrectly suggested that jerry hague, a prospective labour party candidate, had in 2010 been found guilty of professional misconduct for dishonestly misleading sick ex miners seeking compensation for industrial injuries. we incorrectly suggested he had done so by perpetrating a scam against them when improperly deducting monies from their compensation. we accept that this allegation is false. whilst mr hague did make admissions to the solicitors disciplinary tribunal of professional failings, they concerned the failure to provide better information to clients under professional practice rules and did not concern dishonesty, which was never alleged against him. we further accept that we omitted from the article that the tribunal concluded that mr hague, and his firm graysons, did not act unethically and had provided a good high level of professional service to their clients. we apologise to mr hague for these errors and for the distress caused and have agreed to pay him substantial damages and costs. august 21, 2023the number of 18 year olds in receipt of free school meals who have been accepted by universities this year has risen by about 2,000, not fallen sharply as we said (leading article, aug 17). the plan for covid boosters to be made available for anyone to buy is not the result of a rule change (news, aug 18). we are happy to make this clear. august 16, 2023we said in a headline that leaving money to charity could be a “win” for the deceased’s loved ones (money, aug 5). while the course of action outlined in the article would lead to a reduction in the amount (and rate) of inheritance tax paid it would not result in a net gain for the deceased’s heirs. we are happy to make this clear. august 12, 2023we said barnton bunker was built for the late queen in the event of nuclear war (news, aug 9). while the owners say this was rumoured, there is no evidence it was the case. august 11, 2023lord mendoza does not succeed duncan wilson as chairman of historic england, as we wrongly said (news, aug 10). wilson remains chief executive. the outgoing chairman is sir laurie magnus. august 7, 2023we wrongly attributed new judicial guidance on judges’ conduct to hm court and tribunals service (news, aug 5). august 5, 2023we said in a headline that british companies were exporting key equipment to russia “despite sanctions” (business, jul 31). we are happy to make clear that hill & smith plc and its subsidiary companies have never had a direct customer relationship with, or provided equipment to, any sanctioned entity in russia. august 3, 2023an article headlined “radcliffe: trust children to transition”, published on april 13, 2023, reported comments made by three high court judges in 2020 that children aged 13 and under would be highly unlikely to be able to give their competent consent for treatment to begin their transition. this was misleading as to the current legal position in light of a subsequent ruling by the court of appeal which found that it was inappropriate for the high court to reach such general age related conclusions. this correction has been published following an upheld ruling by the independent press standards organisation. august 2, 2023in “post office scandal: fujitsu staff ‘complicit in cover up” (news, aug 2) we wrongly published an image of simon henderson. we apologise for the error. july 27, 2023archie norman is the chairman of m&s, not the former chairman as we said. michael house was the name of the company’s headquarters on baker street, not of its flagship oxford street store (news, jul 21). july 24, 2023we wrongly attributed lyrics to the pink floyd album the dark side of the moon (news, jul 21). the lyrics quoted were from the band’s earlier album, obscured by clouds. july 21, 2023we said in a headline that elizabeth winkler’s recent book claimed shakespeare was a woman. (t2, jul 7). ms winkler has asked us to make clear that her book explores various theories, including the possibility of a woman’s hand in the plays, while leaving readers to make up their own minds. july 20, 2023a 41 gun salute to honour the queen’s birthday was performed by members of the king’s troop royal horse artillery, not the honourable artillery company as a caption wrongly said (news, jul 18). july 18, 2023we wrongly said that the vexatious litigant david taheri had used jim davidson’s name to bring dozens of bogus discrimination claims against companies (news, jul 3). in fact only one of almost four dozen vexatious claims filed by taheri used the comedian’s name. we are happy to put the record straight. july 17, 2023the designer of the cha table, commended by viaduct furniture at the new designers graduate exhibition, is helen wat, not amy chan as we wrongly said (bricks & mortar, july 14). we apologise for the error. july 15, 2023an editing error changed “buy to leave” to “buy to let” in a letter from barbara melrose (july 4). we apologise for the confusion. july 10, 2023we wrongly attributed to lord burnett of maldon the view of kirsty brimelow, chair of the criminal bar, that “crumbling courts, delays and the general ongoing crisis in the criminal courts shake confidence in the justice system as a whole.” (news, july 6). our apologies. july 8, 2023in the obituary for paul rendall (june 14) we referred to some post rugby match high jinks in which rendall donned a judge’s wig and “passed sentence” on his friend jeff probyn. we now understand that the incident involved another rugby player and not mr probyn. we apologise for the mistaken identity. july 4, 2023the mcc member whose photograph was used with our article “do mcc members feel part of the problem?” (sport, june 29) was not one of those who spoke to our journalist about the independent commission for equity in cricket report. we are happy to make this clear. july 3, 2023in reporting evidence given in the criminal prosecution of ghislaine maxwell (news, december 2, 2021), we made a wrongful allegation about emmy tayler. we accept that this was not a correct account and apologise sincerely to ms tayler for the harm and upset caused to her. we have agreed to pay damages and legal costs. june 21, 2023norway’s sovereign wealth fund is worth about $1.4 trillion, not $1.4 billion as we wrongly said (news, jun 20). june 19, 2023we said new storeys and departments were to be added at hillingdon hospital (news, jun 17). in fact the hospital is to be demolished and replaced with new buildings. june 10, 2023we said that john morris had been the longest serving welsh mp in history (obituary, june 7). in fact david lloyd george served three more years. june 8, 2023we reported that in the style’s stock had fallen 99.6 per cent in the past year and its founder had announced plans to enter compulsory liquidation (times 2, june 7). in fact it is itsarm, the former parent company of in the style, that made the announcement after the fall in its share price. june 5, 2023raymond simonson is not known as ray and is chief executive of jw3, not the jewish museum as we wrongly said (news, jun 3). we are sorry for the errors. june 2, 2023lord (robert) carswell attended pembroke college, oxford, not cambridge as we wrongly said (obituary, jun 1). may 31, 2023a photo of uwe kitzinger at a march in his nineties (obituary, may 30) showed him with his daughter jenny, not her sister tess as we wrongly said. may 30, 2023we wrongly said that no peer was appointed by a resignation honours list between 1997 and 2016 (news, may 27). in fact, as well as those created in the resignation honours lists of 1997 and 2016, 31 peers were created this way in 2010. may 29, 2023vernon kay is not a party in a court case over planning permission for a cabin near his home (news, may 26). we are happy to make this clear. we stated that an indicative from lecram holdings valued purplebricks at £153 million, rather than £1.53 million (business, may 28). we apologise for the error. may 16, 2023we suggested on november 21, 2022, that dinah rose kc had been ruled against for recklessness by the bar standards board. this was incorrect. the board made no ruling against her and found no evidence of recklessness. we accept that under the constitutional principles which she cited, the bar rules did not allow her to refuse a brief for the cayman islands government in a case concerning the right to same sex marriage. the article was therefore misleading. we apologise to ms rose for the distress caused, and have agreed to pay her substantial damages and legal costs. may 11, 2023in “clock ticking on wasps’ new start” (sport, may 10) we mistakenly reported that the wasps legends charitable foundation was thought to have provided working capital when the club was bought out of administration. it did not. we apologise for the error. may 10, 2023an arrest photographed during the coronation was not that of graham smith, leader of the anti monarchy group republic, as our caption wrongly said (news, may 8). may 8, 2023we wrongly referred to commander allan tarver as an raf pilot (obituary, may 3). commander tarver served with the royal navy’s fleet air arm. we apologise for the error. april 28,2023a photograph showed the king presenting new colours to the life guards, not to the royal navy as our caption wrongly said (news, april 28). april 27, 2023just stop oil’s avowed aim is for the government to stop licensing all new oil, gas and coal projects, not to force an immediate halt to all use of fossil fuels as we said (leading article, apr 27). april 26, 2023lord (narendra) patel is expected to carry the sovereign’s ring at the coronation, not lord (kamlesh) patel of bradford as we wrongly suggested in some editions (news, apr 24). we reported the results of polling by river action uk (“tackling river pollution could bring flood of votes”, news, apr 25). we have since been made aware that yougov gave the charity access to its polling panel on the understanding that results would not be made public, as they were not properly weighted and the questions were not approved by yougov. we are happy to make this clear. april 19, 2023sir nicholas bonsor served as chairman of the british field sports society, not the british association for shooting and conservation as we wrongly said (obituary, apr 8). april 14, 2023we said junior doctors’ pay rises with each year of training (news, apr 13). in fact, their pay scale includes four rises during training that typically takes five to ten years. april 3, 2023member states of the cptpp trade bloc include brunei, not borneo as we wrongly said (leading article, apr 1). april 1, 2023the balaji family featured in “dream holiday ruined, but opodo won’t pay up” (money, mar 26) have since learnt that the £1,310 they thought they were owed had been repaid. we are happy to put the record straight. the picture used to illustrate an article on josé antonio primo de rivera (world news, mar 31) showed his father, miguel. march 30, 2023the culture secretary is lucy frazer, not michelle donelan as we wrongly said (news, mar 29). march 27, 2023we wrongly reported in an obituary of the fencer allan jay (march 22) that he had been briefly engaged to vanessa salmon (who later married nigel lawson). we are happy to set the record straight and apologise for the mistake. march 23, 2023we wrongly said graham stanton had been charged with manslaughter (news, print edition, mar 20). in fact he has been charged with failing to render assistance after a boat accident in the british virgin islands. march 21, 2023the dividend yields published in our share price listing pages (business) were found last month to contain errors. we have temporarily suspended publication of this data while our supplier identifies and resolves the problem. as soon as we are satisfied that the data supplied to us is correct, publication will be resumed. we apologise for any inconvenience in the meantime. march 17, 2023we wrongly said that customers of the energy firm utilita had to pay by direct debit (news, mar 16). in fact it is a pay as you go specialist. march 14, 2023we said all the uk’s nuclear submarines were built at barrow in furness (business, mar 13). in fact three were built at cammell laird in birkenhead. march 10, 2023we wrongly described nicola fox as nasa’s new chief scientist (news, mar 6) instead of head of science. march 9, 2023we wrongly said rl stine had censored some of his goosebumps books (news, mar 3). in fact they were changed without his knowledge. march 3, 2023a report about a house of lords debate on the national security bill (news, mar 2) referred to lord (guy) black of brentwood, deputy chairman of the telegraph media group, as lord black of crossharbour. we apologise for the mistake, which was introduced in editing. february 29, 2023on february 24 we reported that ronesans was the constructor of a 12 storey residence in antakya that collapsed in the earthquake. this was incorrect and we apologise for the error. the 12 storey residence was in fact constructed by an entity that has no connection to ronesans holding. february 28, 2023michael rosen has asked us to correct or clarify a number of points in his interview (weekend, feb 25). he did not use the words “sensitivity reader”. while he said he would not himself now use the words “fat” and “ugly”, he did not comment on whether they should be in other books for children. he was re enacting cowboy films a few years after the holocaust, not “a couple of decades”. he did not say he had worked with the dahl family. his youtube readings have had 128.5 million views, not 300 400 million. he has done what he can to get antisemitic “remixes” of his videos removed from youtube. his wife is a trainee case worker, not an immigration lawyer. we are happy to put the record straight and apologise for the mistakes. we wrongly said that the winnie the pooh books had fallen out of copyright (saturday review, feb 25). in fact aa milne’s books winnie the pooh, the house at pooh corner, when we were very young and now we are six all remain in copyright in the uk and much of the rest of the world. february 20, 2023our brief summary of a news story on house prices was unclear, wrongly suggesting they had risen only £14 in a year (feb 20). as the full story explained, reported figures indicate that on average prices rose by £14 in the last month. the rise over a year was £13,648. we apologise for the confusion. february 19, 2023we reported that the rower miriam payne, 23, had set a new atlantic record (feb 18). we have been asked to make clear that this was a new race record for the fastest solo female in the talisker whisky atlantic challenge, not a world record. the world record for the fastest solo female atlantic crossing is held by the rower victoria evans. february 15, 2023a letter said john christie was convicted of the murders of beryl and geraldine evans (feb 11). he was not, although he did at his own trial admit to killing beryl evans. february 11, 2023we wrongly reported that the average new zealand house price rose 45.7 per cent from $1.937 million at the start of the pandemic to $2.717 million in october 2021, and has fallen 11.1 per cent since then to $2.416 million (bricks & mortar, feb 10). in fact the median house price rose 43.3 per cent from $628,000 at the start of the pandemic to $900,000 in october 2021, and has since fallen 12.2 per cent to $790,000. february 8, 2023on january 26 we reported that tim martin, of jd wetherspoon, was criticised for telling his employees to “go to work at tesco” while pubs were closed during the pandemic. mr martin told employees that supermarkets needed staff in the pandemic, that staff offered that work could take it and that they would be given priority at jd wetherspoon should they return. we are happy to make that clear and apologise to jd wetherspoon and mr martin for the error. january 26, 2023because of an editing error, an article about french unions shutting ski lifts wrongly referred to the ski world cup instead of the world ski championships in courchevel and méribel, and gave the dates as march 16 20 rather than february 6 19 (news, jan 25). january 23, 2023we wrongly suggested (business, jan 19) that topps tiles had expressed quality concerns about cersanit’s products. january 20, 2023we wrongly reported that an independent review of the actions of the western front association over the censuring of jonathan d’hooghe only followed as a result of the annual meeting of branch chairmen (news, dec 28). in fact it was already under way by that time. the charity has also asked us to make clear that mr d’hooghe was removed as a trustee within two weeks of the first complaint being received. we are happy to put this on record and apologise for the mistake. january 13, 2023the headline and picture captions that accompanied an article published on january 11 (business) incorrectly stated that the plymouth brethren christian church is involved in a high court case over cancelled ppe deals and that the church was awarded a £100 million contract. the litigation is concerned with contracts awarded to companies with links to the church. we apologise for the error. january 12, 2023a report on a planning dispute (news, dec 29) was wrongly illustrated with a photograph of a property previously owned by the couple involved. we apologise for the error. january 9, 2023we wrongly referred to the crown prince of sweden (leading article, jan 7). the heir apparent to the swedish throne is crown princess victoria. january 5, 2023we said that nearly half the ski runs in zermatt were closed (news, jan 3). in fact the closed slopes are “off piste” runs. more than 240km of slopes are open, including the downhill runs to the village. we are happy to make this clear. january 2, 2023our story “bbc pays out £127m in golden goodbyes amid staff exodus” (news, dec 31) was accompanied by photographs of andrew marr, emily maitlis and jon sopel. in fact none of the pictured journalists received a severance payment from the bbc. we are happy to make this clear and apologise for any confusion caused. see corrections and

(a few loopholes aside, that is.) last crossover day, feb. 29, 2024, the house and senate voted 125 times between them. (in 2025, it’s march 6.) the day started about 10 a.m. with attendance and procedural votes, and it didn’t end for more than 12 hours. by the start of day 40, legislators are looking at their last chance of the year to get a bill to the governor’s desk for his consideration. a successful bill that went through normal channels will have two committee approvals behind it. but a full floor vote involves getting the blessing of someone powerful: say, a rules committee chair or a lieutenant governor presiding over the state senate. that can happen as late as the last day of session. when the day starts at 10 a.m., there are still questions about what might or might not be called when the day ends, more than 12 hours later. some amendments may even appear and surprise everyone except the authors.as the last day turns into evening, the house and senate each count how many of their bills the other chamber has passed, and take strategic breaks as leaders demand votes from the other. it’s like a game of chicken, but punctuated with pizza delivery and visits to a coffee urn. as evening turns into night, then late night, deals are cut and votes can happen quickly after hours of waiting. house and senate leadership bring each others’ bills for agreements or disagreements before one chamber has time to pull up a copy of the changed language they’re supposed to vote on. folks follow the signs given by whips or party leaders or the people sitting beside them: sometimes the red button but usually green. last year, a few votes happened after midnight on day 40. for the legislature, that’s the same “day,” even if the calendar says different. want to keep up with the days? here’s a link to the general assembly calendar for 2025. nonprofit, independent journalism needs your support to survive and thrive. help us achieve our mission of creating a more informed world by making a one time or recurring donation today. your contribution is appreciated. maggie lee is a data reporter for the current. she has been covering georgia and metro atlanta government and politics since 2008, contributing writing and data journalism over the years to creative loafing,... more by maggie lee republish this story this work is licensed under a creative commons attribution noderivatives 4.0 international license. by maggie lee, the current february 8, 2025 to provide independent, solutions based investigative journalism without bias, fear or favor with clear focus on issues affecting savannah and coastal georgia learn more› enter the code sent to your email. email address enter your password sign in by entering the code we sent to , or clicking the magic link in the email. by signing up, you agree to our terms and conditions. this site is protected by recaptcha and the google privacy policy and terms of service apply.

amendments. on june 18, 2024, the federal aviation administration (faa) published a final rule titled “removal of check pilot medical certificate requirement,” which was corrected on july 16, 2024. that final rule removed inconsistencies applicable to the qualification requirements for check pilots and flight instructors in domestic, flag, and supplemental operations and flight instructors in commuter and on demand operations so that check pilots, check flight engineers, and flight instructors can continue to perform their functions in aircraft without a medical certificate unless they are serving as required flightcrew members. it also removed the medical certificate requirement for flight instructors in commuter and on demand operations who perform their functions in aircraft and are not serving as required flightcrew members. the final rule inadvertently failed to revise two section headings. this document makes those corrections. this correction is effective december 27, 2024. joshua jackson, aviation safety inspector, air transportation division, flight standards service, federal aviation administration, 800 independence avenue sw, washington, dc 20591; telephone: 202 267 8166; email: joshua.jackson@faa.gov. on june 18, 2024, the faa published a final rule titled “removal of check pilot medical certificate requirement.” [1] that final rule removed inconsistencies applicable to the qualification requirements for check pilots and flight instructors in domestic, flag, and supplemental operations and flight instructors in commuter and on demand operations so that check pilots, check flight engineers, and flight instructors can continue to perform their functions in aircraft without a medical certificate unless they are serving as required flightcrew members. it also removed the medical certificate requirement for flight instructors in commuter and on demand operations who perform their functions in aircraft and are not serving as required flightcrew members. this is the second set of corrections. the first set of corrections was published in the federal register on july 16, 2024 (89 fr 57729). this document augments the previously published corrections. after publication of the final rule, the faa determined that the revisions to the section headings for §§ 135.339 and ( print page 105448) 135.340 had inadvertently not been made. the final rule intended to revise the section heading for § 135.339 by removing the obsolete terminology “check airmen (aircraft), check airmen (simulator)” and replacing them with “check pilots.” this would rename the heading to that section from “§ 135.339 initial and transition training and checking: check airmen (aircraft), check airmen (simulator),” to “§ 135.339 initial and transition training and checking: check pilots.” similarly, the section heading for § 135.340 was also intended to be revised by removing the obsolete terminology “flight instructors (aircraft)” and “flight instructors (simulator)” and replacing those terms with “flight instructor. this would rename the heading to that section from “§ 135.340 initial and transition training and checking: flight instructors (aircraft), flight instructors (simulator)” to “§ 135.340 initial and transition training and checking: flight instructors.” however, the faa failed to include the instruction to revise the section heading in the amendatory instructions for both sections. this document makes those corrections. accordingly, 14 cfr part 135 is corrected by making the following correcting amendments: 1. the authority citation for part 135 continues to read as follows: authority: 49 u.s.c. 106(f), 40113, 41706, 44701 44702, 44705, 44709, 44711 44713, 44715 44717, 44722, 44730, 45101 45105; pub. l. 112 95, 126 stat. 58 (49 u.s.c. 44730). 2. amend § 135.339 by revising the section heading to read as follows: 3. amend § 135.340 by revising the section heading to read as follows: issued under authority provided by 49 u.s.c. 106(f), 44701(a), and 44703 in washington, dc. brandon roberts, executive director, office of rulemaking. 1. removal of check pilot medical certificate requirement final rule, 89

this resource is being maintained for historical purposes only and is not currently applicable. stakeholders should bookmark this page for regular messages from leadership related to the 2024 25 free application for federal student aid (fafsa®) form. dear colleagues, this week, i joined the federal student aid (fsa) team, financial aid professionals, state officials, vendors, and others at the annual conference of the national association of student financial aid administrators in milwaukee, wisconsin. we always find this conference to be a valuable opportunity to share information back and forth with the professionals in the field. we also welcome to fsa two education leaders with deep experience who will play crucial roles in making the 2025 26 fafsa® form available this fall: denise carter and jeremy singer. last month, denise joined fsa as the principal deputy chief operating officer. she is putting her three decades of management and organizational experience to work strengthening the foundation of fsa projects and programs. she is already focused on the delivery of the 2025 26 fafsa form, and she is also engaged in the broader project of making process improvements to ensure that fsa has the resources necessary to serve students, families, schools, and all our partners most effectively. jeremy singer is now serving as fsa’s fafsa executive advisor. in this role, he will lead overall strategy and accelerate technology innovation to further enhance fsa’s technical and operational capabilities. he will be working closely with the department’s leadership and fafsa implementation team on fsa’s overall strategy to strengthen internal systems and processes, bolster technical capabilities, and drive innovation to help ensure optimal performance leading to the launch of the 2025 26 fafsa form. jeremy is joining the department on temporary leave from his role as president of college board, where he successfully led the development and introduction of major technology innovations in education. he will leverage his experience to maintain fsa’s focus on ensuring that every student is able to access the maximum financial aid possible to reach their higher education goals. we will keep you updated about additional developments. thank you for your continued partnership, rich cordray dear colleagues: all the focused attention on fafsa® completion across the country is paying off as we continue to close the gap on fafsa submissions compared to the 2023 24 application cycle. as of this week, students have submitted 9.4% fewer applications compared to the same time last year. more than 10.8 million 2024 25 fafsa forms have now been submitted, and they are consistently being processed within 1 to 3 days of submission. thank you for your continued efforts to remind students and parents to complete and submit their 2024 25 fafsa form to get the financial assistance they need to achieve their higher education dreams. the department continues to email new and returning students, as well as contributors who started a 2024 25 fafsa form but have not yet submitted their application. we are telling them how to access their forms and where to go if they have questions, and we encourage each of them to fill out and submit the fafsa form as soon as possible. this week, we updated schools about the status of our work on the reprocessing of 2024 25 fafsa records. a june 6 electronic announcement (ea) describes the reprocessed records that schools are now receiving, how to identify those records, and the primary reasons for reprocessing. the ea also notes that we have successfully processed over 1.8 million fafsa corrections. thank you for your continued partnership to benefit students and their families. we appreciate all your good work here. rich cordray dear colleagues: in the department’s continued efforts to support schools, states, and financial aid professionals, we recently published guidance and updates related to the 2024 25 fafsa® form. since the student support strategy launched on may 6, more than 65 organizations have received funds through the partnership with ecmc and are already putting this funding to work to increase fafsa submissions. projects include granting stipends to school counselors to host fafsa completion events, launching mobile fafsa clinics, and providing one on one support during fafsa office hours. all grantees are focused on ensuring that students and families successfully submit the 2024 25 fafsa form. to complement college support, the department created the fafsa student support strategy to increase the number of students completing fafsa forms and enrolling in college, particularly first time college students and students of color. in a may 17 electronic announcement (ea), we provided a summary about reprocessed 2024 25 fafsa records. the may 17 ea also provided an update about blank student aid index and verification tracking flags and noted how to identify reprocessed institutional student information records (isirs). a may 23 ea informed schools about guidance for deadlines to report and reconcile requests for a determination of independence, including unaccompanied homeless youth, youth at risk of homelessness, and students with unusual circumstances for the 2024 25 award year. this ea also noted a display issue for response values on isirs for the ward of the court and foster youth questions. the department updated high school fafsa submission rates by state and high school  and district level data by state or territory about completed (i.e., processed) 2024 25 fafsa forms. we publish this information weekly to support fafsa completion initiatives by schools, states, and other organizations. we are grateful for the widespread efforts focused on fafsa submissions. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: we are encouraged by the efforts of the higher education community, k 12 leaders, community based and college access organizations, and local and state leaders on driving fafsa® submissions. there is real momentum as we work together to help our students receive the support they need to complete and submit the fafsa form on a tight timeframe   many of whom are also in the midst of graduation season and students preparing for summer activities. to bolster this nationwide effort, the department recently announced the next phase of the fafsa support strategy with up to $50 million to help school districts, states, nonprofits, and other state and grassroots organizations boost fafsa completion. the program will support organizations with demonstrated experience expanding college access and enrollment, and funds can be used for fafsa submission clinics, surge capacity, outreach efforts, and more. eligible entities can apply for funds here. colleges and universities have been critical partners in increasing fafsa submissions in the last few months, leading additional campaigns to ensure students can access the maximum aid possible. for example: chancellor king of the suny system has been working directly with local school districts and community leaders on in person and virtual fafsa completion events across the state. the community college of rhode island is encouraging simultaneous application events inclusive of admissions and financial aid via fafsa submission. the austin community college (acc) and austin independent school district partnered to boost fafsa completion by providing one on one support at acc and hosting fafsa events throughout the spring semester, including a “financial aid frenzy” night. we encourage all institutions to reach out to admitted and returning students to encourage them to complete their fafsa form. governors and mayors across the nation are doubling down on the importance of this moment. governor burgum in north dakota and governor hobbs in arizona issued fafsa proclamations. governor healey in massachusetts is making funds available for additional outreach efforts. mayor bowser in washington, d.c. is broadcasting scholarship opportunities. milwaukee mayor cavalier johnson is joining fafsa completion events. k 12 district leaders are also taking action to support high school seniors reach their higher education goals, with the support of the department. the los angeles unified school district superintendent carvalho is broadly sharing resources like their financial aid success toolkit, and is ensuring the word is getting out to their students and families. florida's broward county public schools hosted bilingual completion events and conducted a fafsa outreach campaign to reach more than 30,000 parents through email, text, and social media. community based and college access organizations rapidly mobilized to provide direct support to students and families. the national college attainment network or ncan has launched a public facing social media toolkit as part of their #dothefafsa campaign. organizations like ga futures are partnering with library systems to host completion clinics over the summer months. the national parents union hosted a webinar that has now obtained almost 40,000 views about completing the better fafsa form. the washington student achievement council has updated a statewide 24/7 chatbot called otterbot, with better fafsa details. additionally, the department has a wealth of tools to support fafsa completion, including student and family facing resources that can be used in school related events, such as sports banquets, award nights, and college access events. schools can also access tools to host their own events in the final weeks of school to help students and families navigate the fafsa form. as of today, more than 9.7 million fafsa forms have been submitted for the 2024 25 award year, with applications being processed within 1 3 days of submission. through these collective efforts described above, we’ve closed the submission gap by nearly 65% over the last two months. and, according to our surveys and feedback from partners, nearly 90% of nonprofit and four year institutions are packaging and sending out aid offers to students, helping more students pursue their higher education goals. we are seeing tremendous progress through the efforts of schools, institutions, communities, state and local partners, and families and organizations across the country committed to helping more students access higher education. we look forward to our continued partnership and work with our partners as we remain focused on making sure as many students as possible can access the maximum financial aid they are entitled to. our goal continues to be to help students get all the help they need to pay for college. our collective efforts are working, the submission gap is closing, and we stand ready to support you. thanks, cindy marten u.s. deputy secretary of education dear colleagues: the department today provided an important update about the timeline to process 2024 25 paper fafsa® forms and school initiated corrections. historically, these institutional corrections impact a small subset of applicants, and paper applications represent less than .5% of 2024 25 fafsa forms. we also believe some paper forms have also been submitted online, as the department has encouraged all students to submit their forms on studentaid.gov for their applications to be processed within one to three days to allow for institutions to prepare aid offers quickly. also, as previously announced, the department is reducing the verification rate for this year’s submission. in an electronic announcement (ea) published today, we also describe changes we are making to provide earlier access to pell grant funds for the lowest income applicants. those changes are being made to the process for reporting disbursement information to the common origination and disbursement system for the 2024 25 award year, including the availability of an initial current funding level for the pell grant program. this will allow schools to provide pell grant and other financial resources to students before schools can submit institutional corrections. we are keeping financial aid professionals up to date as new resources and tools become available. we just updated our april 30 ea about access to the 2024 25 fafsa form for individuals without a social security number (ssn) by adding step by step guidance that applicants and contributors without an ssn can follow to access the online form. a related better fafsa webinar recorded on may 3 can be viewed on the fsa training center under the “fafsa simplification” track. we are also finding ways to offer more support for students and families. much like the department’s college support strategy, on may 6, the department announced a multi million dollar fafsa student support strategy to help school districts, states, nonprofits, and other public and private organizations boost fafsa completion efforts. the student support strategy application is available for schools and organizations to access funds to help increase fafsa submissions. our top priority remains ensuring students and families have the resources they need to complete the fafsa form and receive aid offers as quickly as possible. we will continue to provide updates on a regular basis. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: in our ongoing efforts to support financial aid professionals, today at 3:00 p.m. edt, we will host another better fafsa® webinar to walk through this week’s guidance and resources. attendees do not need to register for the event, and the recording will be available on the fsa training center the following business day under the “fafsa simplification” track. this week, we shared important updates for schools, states, and other entities directly involved in delivering financial aid. in an april 29 electronic announcement we shared that we have completed reprocessing those fafsa forms affected by known issues with tax data. in an april 30 electronic announcement, we described changes in our systems to streamline the process so applicants and contributors without a social security number can access the 2024 25 fafsa form. we remained active in our outreach this week with more direct communications to students and contributors who need to make a correction to their 2024 25 fafsa form. as schools and other partners conduct their own outreach, we ask that they remind students and families that fafsa corrections should only take a few minutes to complete. to support outreach efforts, the department created videos in english and spanish to walk students and contributors through the process to make corrections to a fafsa form. those resources are available on the department’s youtube channel, and are pasted below for your quick reference: better fafsa corrections and completion guidance: students better fafsa corrections and completion guidance: parents better fafsa corrections and completion guidance: adding schools how to make corrections and add colleges and universities to your fafsa how to make corrections to the new fafsa form   adding signature and contributor information how to correct and submit the signature in the new fafsa form   for students and their contributors (spanish) orientación para hacer correcciones y completar la better fafsa: padres we are grateful for our strong partnerships with you through this fafsa cycle. our collective efforts are helping students unlock the financial assistance they need to pursue their higher education dreams. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: the department has now delivered reprocessed institutional student information records (isirs) to schools and states for nearly all 2024 25 fafsa® forms affected by both the known fafsa processing system (fps) and tax data issues. with these records in hand, schools should be able to package aid offers, including those that had chosen to wait for all reprocessed records before moving forward. an electronic announcement posted earlier today describes what is included in the reprocessed records, how to identify them, and the reprocessing codes and categories. this week, the department also will continue to email students and contributors who still need to make a correction to a 2024 25 fafsa form, as well as to those who started a form, but did not yet submit it. the department recently launched two videos one for students and one for contributors that guide applicants and their families through the process to make corrections and submit the fafsa form. we encourage schools and states to continue their outreach to students to urge them to make corrections and submit a fafsa form, including students who already have been admitted, but have not yet submitted a financial aid application. the department remains committed to supporting schools, states, vendors, and other partners throughout this fafsa cycle. as schools and states receive student records and package aid offers, the department continues to provide issue specific support: for: contact: support with an saig agreement and mailbox and technical issues related to isir processing, the fafsa partner portal (fpp), and edexpress fps help desk (formerly cps/saig technical support) at 1 800 330 5947 or support@fps.ed.gov general questions about the 2024 25 fafsa form customer support form in fsa’s partner connect help center. to submit a question, enter your name, email address, topic, and question. when submitting a question, select the topic “2024 25 fafsa.” direct technical assistance related to schools processing fafsa forms and packaging aid offers the college support concierge mailbox at collegesupportstrategy fafsa@ed.gov thank you for all your ongoing efforts on behalf of students and their families, rich cordray dear colleagues: this week, we successfully implemented common origination and disbursement system functionality to support campus based programs and schools’ ability to process federal pell grants, teach grants, and direct loans for the 2024 25 award year. an april 17 electronic announcement provides schools with specific guidance about how to manage these records. collective fafsa® outreach efforts by schools, states, college access organizations, the department, and others continue to drive results. to date, we have received nearly 8.2 million fafsa forms and have processed almost all of them. we also are nearly complete on the work of reprocessing forms with known errors through the fafsa processing system. finally, we remain on track to reprocess forms affected by tax discrepancies and begin sending them to schools by may 1. to provide you with ongoing support as transparently as we can, we continue to update the “fafsa status” section on the 2024 25 fafsa updates page on fsa’s knowledge center. the biweekly updates include data about forms submitted and processed to date. the department continues to post high school fafsa submission rates by state, which were last updated on april 15. in addition, the department posts high school level and district level data by state or territory about completed (i.e., processed) 2024 25 fafsa forms on a weekly basis. this data allows school districts to gauge their performance against neighboring districts and other districts within their state. the data also enables states and other organizations to target support to districts that need it most as they encourage students to complete a 2024 25 fafsa form. we are committed to working collaboratively toward the shared goal of helping schools and states package aid as quickly as possible. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: we are working to provide you with the support and resources you need as we navigate this fafsa® season. as a reminder, we have a great number of fafsa related resources and tools now available for your use. our weekly better fafsa webinars, which are tailored both for schools and for those directly involved in delivering financial aid, have been recorded and can be viewed on the fsa training center. other video resources for students and families can be accessed on the fsa outreach youtube channel, including a recent webinar we conducted in spanish with english subtitles. thank you for your feedback and suggestions. when we started these daily communications and weekly webinars, they were intended to respond to your concerns and questions. we remain committed to getting you the timely information you need and encourage you to continue reaching out to us. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: as we continue our direct outreach to students who need to make a correction to submit their 2024 25 fafsa® form, we ask schools for their continued support to remind students and families who need to make a correction to update their form. fafsa corrections should only take a few minutes to complete. to get started, students and contributors can simply go to their studentaid.gov account and select the form that notes an “action required” under “my activity.” some of the most common corrections include signing the form or providing consent and approval to access and use federal tax data. already, our mutual outreach efforts have generated more than 8 million fafsa submissions. we know time is of the essence, and we are providing you with up to date fafsa resources and tools for your use. your outreach activity is clearly making a difference, and we greatly appreciate your efforts to ensure students and families get the financial aid they need to pursue their higher education goals. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: in our ongoing efforts to support schools and states through this fafsa® cycle, we continue to reprocess remaining applications that were affected by known issues with fafsa processing system data, and that work is now progressing fairly quickly. we thank schools for all the steps they are taking to package aid and generate offer letters to students. the department also remains on track to reprocess forms affected by tax data issues and begin sending those reprocessed records to schools by may 1 to enable schools to make additional aid offers. in february, secretary cardona announced the fafsa college support strategy to support under resourced schools, stand up a concierge service, and provide ongoing assistance during this fafsa cycle. as part of this strategy, we reached out to schools to understand what additional support they need and communicate about available resources and tools. through these conversations and additional feedback from the community, we have learned that hundreds of schools are already making aid offers to students, including the majority of those with may 1 decision deadlines. other schools are giving students more time to make decisions on a case by case basis. we are grateful for all that schools and states are doing to ensure that students and families have the financial aid they need for the upcoming academic year. we will continue our work to support those efforts to process isirs and get aid offers to students as quickly as possible. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: today wraps up the department’s national fafsa® week of action campaign to encourage more students and families to complete and submit the better fafsa form. with your support and our combined outreach efforts, to date, more than 7.8 million fafsa forms have been successfully submitted. we know much work still lies ahead, and we remain committed to continuing to support you with timely information you need to get aid into the hands of students and families. today, we will send district level fafsa submission data to governors’ offices so they can identify which districts have the biggest gaps in submissions and plan accordingly. we will also share resources about tools and best practices for state leaders to leverage in their conversations with stakeholders. on april 15 and april 17 we published two electronic announcements (eas) that provide key information about student corrections, our work to reprocess fafsa records, and processing of campus based aid for the 2024 25 award year. this week, our better fafsa webinar had fsa experts answering questions from financial aid administrators, vendors, state agencies, and others directly involved in delivering financial aid; the recording is now available on the fsa training center. also this week, we hosted a webinar in spanish for students, their families, and organizations that support spanish speaking communities. our team outlined the process to complete and submit the 2024 25 fafsa form. the recording, which includes english subtitles, is available now on the fsa outreach youtube channel. another way we are supporting students and families is by answering their questions among other items about the fafsa form via the federal student aid information center (known as fsaic) at 1 800 4 fed aid. the fsaic team has received calls from students asking for help making corrections to their fafsa form. regrettably, fsaic agents cannot make corrections to fafsa information or issue a duplicate paper fafsa submission summary by mail. we recognize students are eager to make corrections, and this functionality is now available. we are contacting students and contributors directly who need to return to their fafsa form to make a correction. other students may wish to make corrections by adding more schools to their forms. thank you in advance for your help reminding students and contributors to return to studentaid.gov/fafsa to update their forms, including adding schools, signing, or consenting for tax data to be shared. most corrections should only take a few minutes to complete, and they will be processed one to three days after submission. we know this fafsa cycle has been challenging for everyone. we are grateful for your candid feedback to help us identify and resolve issues, provide the support you need, and deliver for students and their families. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: we will host our weekly better fafsa® webinar from 1 2 p.m. eastern time today, a day earlier than our usual friday sessions. you will have an opportunity to get your questions answered about the 2024 25 fafsa cycle. as always, no prior registration is required, and the session will be recorded and available the next business day on the fsa training center. yesterday, the department began reprocessing fafsa forms affected by known issues with fafsa processing system data. this work affects a small portion of applications and will generate subsequent institutional student information record (isir) transactions that we will deliver to schools and states. in an april 17 electronic announcement (ea), the department provided detailed information about the reprocessed records. the april 17 ea also laid out our timeline to reprocess fafsa forms affected by tax data issues. we are targeting to reprocess these records and begin sending them to schools by may 1. in addition, the ea noted our plan to implement common origination and disbursement (cod) system functionality to support campus based programs and schools’ ability to process federal pell grants, teach grants, and direct loans for the 2024 25 award year. we remind schools that during the reprocessing period, they should only create origination and disbursement records in the cod system that correspond to the isir transactions the school will use to disburse aid to the student. thank you for all you continue to do to support students in pursuing their higher education dreams to secure a brighter future for themselves and for our country. i will be back tomorrow with a recap of this week’s updates and announcements. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: now that students and contributors can make corrections to their 2024 25 fafsa® forms, as previously noted, we are reaching out to students to inform them of that functionality and to prompt them to consider whether they need to make any corrections. we continue to appreciate the energetic efforts that schools are making. we strongly encourage schools to contact students whose records indicate one or more rejection codes and urge them to submit a correction as soon as possible to receive their financial aid offer. corrections typically can be made in just a few minutes. we ask that schools and states help us remind students they should return to studentaid.gov/fafsa to update their applications, including adding schools, signing, or consenting for tax data to be shared. the department continues to process corrections. within one to three days of an applicant submitting a correction, schools and states typically should receive a new institutional student information record (isir) transaction and students should be able to review their updated fafsa submission summary. we will host this week’s better fafsa training webinar one day earlier on thursday, april 18 from 1 2 p.m. eastern time. financial aid administrators, vendors, state agencies, and others directly involved in delivering financial aid are invited to join federal student aid staff to get answers to their questions about the 2024 25 fafsa form. as a reminder, you do not need to register for the event, and it will be recorded and available on the fsa training center the next business day. we are committed to supporting students as they navigate corrections and submit their fafsa forms. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: as we announced last week, students and their contributors can now make corrections to change or add to their 2024 25 fafsa forms, including adding schools, signing, or consenting for internal revenue service data to be shared. we already have successfully processed more than 100,000 corrections. to help students and their contributors make the most common fafsa corrections, we updated information on studentaid.gov. starting this week and throughout the month, we will follow up with students directly by email if they need to make a correction to successfully submit the 2024 25 fafsa form. in an april 15 electronic announcement (ea), we explained that, within one to three days of an applicant submitting a correction, schools and states typically should receive a new institutional student information record (isir) transaction and students should be able to review their updated fafsa submission summary. we will continue to update the issue alerts page on the knowledge center as we identify and resolve any issues. we also confirmed that this week, the department expects to reprocess the estimated 10% of records affected by fafsa processing system known issues. as shared previously, we are targeting may 1 to reprocess the estimated 20% of records that were affected by inconsistent tax data. we strongly urge schools, states, and organizations directly involved in delivering aid to review the april 15 ea for more detailed information about our reprocessing timelines and the resources available to assist schools, states, and others. the department’s fafsa week of action got off to a busy start yesterday, with numerous events happening across the country. read more about our outreach efforts here. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: today kicks off the department’s national fafsa® week of action and the #fafsafastbreak national campaign. together, let’s make big strides in getting more students to join the more than 7.5 million who have already submitted a 2024 25 fafsa form. our communications toolkit is a helpful resource for anyone supporting students and their families during this fafsa cycle. you can also use #fafsafastbreak on social media to tell us about activities and events happening in your area. as state deadlines near, please consider increasing public outreach, videos, and collaborative events that reach students and families. today is the state financial aid deadline in states like texas, while other states like california on may 2 have deadlines approaching in less than three weeks. at 8 p.m. eastern time on wednesday, april 17, the department will host a webinar, “how to submit the 2024 25 fafsa form,” with both english and spanish subtitles. this webinar is intended for students, parents, fafsa contributors, and all of the counselors, mentors, and college access professionals who support students and their families. registration is simple, and the webinar recording will be conveniently available thereafter on the fsa outreach youtube channel. last week, the department provided some detailed information about the timelines for reprocessing institutional student information records (isirs) affected by known errors and related options for schools and states. in the coming days, we expect to update schools about this crucial part of the fafsa process. we also expect to make fafsa corrections widely available early this week. we will update studentaid.gov with detailed information for students and their contributors about how to make the most common corrections, and we will email students and contributors who need to return to their 2024 25 fafsa form to take an action, such as signing the form. we are eager to help schools continue to package aid to students as soon as possible. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: in partnership with you, we have now delivered information to schools and states for nearly 7.3 million 2024 25 fafsa® forms, and we have returned to normal processing times of 1 to 3 days after a fafsa form is submitted. this week, we provided updates about the timeline to reprocess forms affected by errors and alerted institutional partners that we are in the final phase of testing 2024 25 fafsa form corrections. we explained that, thus far, students and their contributors may be able to make corrections for very brief periods and may experience issues during the final testing period. anyone who is unable to make corrections during the final testing period should return to their form early next week when the department expects to have corrections widely available. earlier this week, secretary cardona sent a letter to leadership at all schools to update them directly about recent steps to provide support as they navigate the new fafsa process. this week, we also delivered information to schools to support their analysis of affected institutional student information records (isirs) and issued guidance about the treatment of affected isirs. in addition, we contacted millions of students and their parents who completed a 2023 24 fafsa form, but have not yet completed a 2024 25 application, encouraging them to do so. today at 3 p.m. et, we will host our weekly fafsa webinar for financial aid professionals. we will walk through this week’s guidance, resources, and other information, including the school  or state specific data files delivered this week to help schools and states identify additional fafsa records for which they can package aid. we will also address common correction scenarios. our goal is to provide more specific information and help you get answers to your questions. attendees do not need to register for the event, and the recording will be available on the fsa training center under the “fafsa simplification” track the following business day. starting on monday, april 15, the department is launching its national fafsa week of action and our #fafsafastbreak national campaign. our communications toolkit is designed to help counselors, mentors, state and local officials, college access professionals, and others to encourage students and families to submit the 2024 25 fafsa form. please use #fafsafastbreak on social media to share your success stories and tell us about activities and events. we are committed to working together with you to drive more fafsa completion. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: thank you for following this week’s fafsa® updates. we understand how important it is for schools to receive timely information in a way that is both clear and actionable, and how much of a challenge this poses for us all. we will continue to provide schools with tools and resources to help them through the 2024 25 fafsa cycle. through an electronic announcement (ea) today, we provided guidance for schools about making aid awards using institutional student information records (isirs) affected by the processing errors and tax data inconsistencies we discussed in april 1 and april 4 electronic announcements and previous blog posts. in today’s communication, we highlight the department’s guidance that packaging aid offers will not lead to compliance concerns or program reviews. yesterday, we provided guidance through an ea about the school  or state specific data files that the department delivered via student aid internet gateway (saig) mailboxes this week. each record includes information about fafsa records that will be reprocessed and the reason, which will assist schools and states to further identify additional fafsa records for which they can go ahead and package aid. as a reminder: as we work to reprocess these affected records in the coming weeks, schools and states may use their judgment to rely on the original isir they received not the reprocessed record if the original isir results in greater financial aid eligibility for students. if the reprocessed isir results in greater financial aid, schools may make estimated offers now, but must use the reprocessed record for final offers and disbursing funds. using original isirs, as described in today’s ea, will not, on its own, lead to compliance concerns or program reviews. this evening, the department will continue direct outreach to students and families as well as college access professionals and others who assist spanish speaking communities by supporting the white house initiative on advancing educational equity, excellence, and economic opportunity for hispanics during a fafsa related webinar in spanish. the webinar will begin at 7 p.m. et and will include a walk through of the process to submit a 2024 25 fafsa form. please encourage students, families, and others to register to attend. it will be recorded and posted on the department’s live events & webinars youtube page for those who want to review it later. on friday, we will host another weekly better fafsa training webinar for financial aid administrators, vendors, state agencies, and other entities directly involved in delivering federal student aid. tomorrow’s 3 4 p.m. et webinar will recap this week’s guidance, resources, and other information and walk through the universally unique identification numbers lists that schools received this week, along with addressing common fafsa correction scenarios. you do not need to register for the event, and it will be recorded and available on the fsa training center the next business day. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: the department has now delivered information to schools and states for more than 7 million 2024 25 fafsa® forms, and we are processing new fafsa forms as we receive them. please continue to share your questions and experiences with us. we are constantly updating our frequently asked questions and known issues on the knowledge center to help you package aid as quickly as possible. we know students and parents are eager to be able to make fafsa corrections. we are in the final phases of testing to make student initiated corrections widely available by early next week. students will be able to make corrections on studentaid.gov, and the entire process should only take a few minutes for most applicants. yesterday, the department published an electronic announcement (ea) that included information about the timelines for reprocessing institutional student information records (isirs). last week, we provided you with information about records that require corrected tax information from the irs, which we now are aiming to reprocess by may 1. we expect to reprocess the records with other known issues next week. we will continue to update you about our plans for reprocessing as we have more to say. to allow you to move forward more quickly, we have also clarified that schools and states can use their judgment and rely on the original isir not the reprocessed record if the original isir results in greater financial aid eligibility for students. today, we will send schools more information to their student aid internet gateway mailbox to support the analysis of affected isirs. the information includes school  or state specific details to help you identify more records for which you can start packaging aid. in the coming days, we will provide you with further information about how schools and states can treat isirs affected by errors when making financial aid offers. in addition, secretary cardona just sent a letter to college presidents, chancellors, and financial aid directors about recent steps to provide support in helping you navigate the new fafsa process. thank you for working with us as we continue to address the major challenge of streamlining the fafsa form and overhauling the fafsa process. we’ll be back tomorrow morning with another update. rich cordray dear colleagues: this week and next, the department will engage in a great deal of direct outreach to students, parents, and fafsa® partners to drive more people to complete and submit the 2024 25 fafsa form to qualify for federal student aid. yesterday, we began contacting millions of students and their parents who completed a 2023 24 fafsa form but have not yet completed a 2024 25 application. we are letting them know that the 2024 25 fafsa form is available and encouraging them to complete it. we also are providing links to helpful resources, including the page on studentaid.gov where they can find their state deadline, user friendly fafsa videos and infographics, and a checklist to help them understand what they need to complete the form. starting next monday april 15 the department will take further steps to drive fafsa completion across the country. in our national engagement and outreach push, we are working closely with governors, superintendents, principals, counselors, and other key partners to ask them to host “fafsa nights” and other completion events aimed at helping students access the maximum financial aid possible. we urge you to encourage students and parents in your area to participate in local events and follow along on social media. to learn more about our enrollment efforts and how to participate, please contact shital.c.shah@ed.gov. later today, we will also provide updated information to schools and state agencies about what they can expect for student corrections and reprocessing of those records affected by processing errors or tax data discrepancies. in another day or two, we will send lists of the students whose records are affected by any errors or discrepancies, along with more details about processing their records. we will continue to post key information that schools need on the knowledge center. we thank you for your partnership and your commitment to the federal student aid process. rich cordray dear colleagues: thank you for your interest as we provide updates about the 2024 25 fafsa® form. together with our partners, we are pressing very hard to make higher education a reality for more students. we are continuing to push through various issues to enable colleges to process aid packages. we are helping every college that has requested our help, and we will maintain our efforts to share information through this blog and our knowledge center. as of april 8, more than 7 million better fafsa forms have been submitted. they are being processed as they come in, and all the information we receive is typically sent to colleges and universities within one to three business days. we have addressed the tax data discrepancies and other previously identified issues with the fafsa form, which means that the forms being submitted now will not be affected by those issues. as we stated last week, we will reprocess the fafsa forms submitted previously that were affected by the tax data discrepancies and other identified issues. more information about that process will be outlined soon. as of friday, schools and states now have lists that identify which records are affected by these issues and which records are unaffected by these issues. we provided these lists in order to allow schools and states to begin to package aid offers, since the majority of applicants have records that are unaffected by any of these issues. in the coming days, we will send more information and data to assist schools and states with analyzing affected records. today, the department will release guidance that outlines how state grant agencies can use fafsa data to support students completing fafsa forms. state grant agencies are permitted to disclose fafsa filing status information to secondary schools and local education agencies. the guidance provides information about steps that states can take to disclose this information to eligible nonprofit college access organizations, including trio and gear up grantees. we know this information sharing is an important tool that high schools and college access organizations use to support fafsa completion efforts. today’s guidance also includes information about how state grant agencies can engage in outreach using fafsa data, such as student aid index and pell grant status, to communicate with students about specific means tested benefit programs, such as snap, for which they may be eligible. all of us at the department deeply appreciate the work you are doing to help students use the better fafsa form to create a better future. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: thank you for following along with us this week as we provided daily updates about the 2024 25 fafsa® form. we appreciate your work to ensure students can pursue their higher education goals. we intend to do everything in our power to support you with the tools and resources you need. this week, the department shared an update about tax data inconsistencies; provided information about unaffected fafsa forms to colleges and states; hosted a webinar about the tax discrepancies with in depth insights about the latest information, which was recorded and is available for viewing; clarified resolution of an issue that made it challenging for applicants to invite contributors without a social security number to their online fafsa form; and announced the reprocessing of fafsa forms affected by the tax discrepancies and other previously identified issues. our goal is to help schools move as quickly as possible to package aid offers for students. we are in the process of sending password protected files to schools, so they know which records are unaffected and which are affected. this will enable schools to package aid offers for the majority of applicants. as we said yesterday, based on feedback from schools, we will be reprocessing all affected records and allowing schools to choose whether to use the original or updated record for packaging aid offers. to continue our school support efforts, at 3 p.m. et today, we will hold our weekly fafsa webinar for the higher education community. today’s topic will present answers to the most common technical questions we have received to date from schools, software developers, and states. again, you do not need to register for the event, which will be recorded and made available on the fsa training center under the “fafsa simplification” track the following business day. let me again express our deep appreciation for all your work to help students access the financial aid they deserve to continue their education beyond high school. we are using multiple channels, including blogs, electronic announcements, webinars, and our college support strategy, to provide you with fafsa information and resources. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: we remain committed to providing you with the latest information you need from the department and fsa to bring higher education in reach for more students and families. as such, we have been providing timely 2024 25 fafsa® updates through this blog and other information posted on our one stop shop for policy and guidance. yesterday, we addressed critical tax discrepancies affecting 2024 25 fafsa forms through an electronic announcement (ea). this announcement provided information about a proactive approach for identifying unaffected and affected submissions through two lists of universally unique identification numbers (uuids) that correspond to those fafsa forms. we also hosted a webinar to discuss this topic and address available school support. yesterday, the department also started sending passwords to schools. next, the department will be sending schools the two password protected files of unaffected and affected records. schools can use the list of unaffected uuids to determine which of their processed institutional student information records (isirs) are ready to package into financial aid offers. we expect schools will be able to package financial aid offers for the majority of applicants, based on these lists. to help schools expedite aid packaging, the department has also developed an open source tool to help schools identify which of their records are unaffected. in response to feedback from colleges, the department has decided that it will automatically reprocess all fafsa records affected by the april 1 announcement, as well as other previously identified issues. we expect to begin reprocessing these records in the first half of april. schools and state agencies will receive a subsequent isir transaction for each reprocessed record. they will still have the ability to use their judgment to rely on the original isir sent not the reprocessed record if the original isir results in greater financial aid eligibility for students. finally, we recently resolved an issue that was keeping some contributors without a social security number (ssn) from participating in the online fafsa form. all applicants who previously had challenges inviting their non ssn contributor to their form may now do so without issue. affected applicants should follow updated instructions and review our fafsa best practices at studentaid.gov/fafsatips. we will be providing more information about this topic and fafsa reprocessing later today through an ea. we know how challenging this year has been and how busy you are supporting your students and their families. we have recorded our fafsa webinars for higher education professionals including yesterday’s event so that those who could not attend the live session can access the information any time. the webinar is available under the “fafsa simplification” track in the fsa training center. the fsa training center also includes recordings of the department’s weekly better fafsa webinars held every friday from 3 until 4 p.m. et for financial aid administrators, vendors, state agencies, and other entities directly involved in delivering federal student aid. these training webinars highlight a specific topic for financial aid professionals to support their work with students and parents. tomorrow’s webinar will focus on answers to the most common technical questions we have received to date from schools, software developers, and states. you do not need to register for the event, and it will be recorded and available on the fsa training center the next business day. i’ll be back tomorrow morning with the day’s fafsa related updates. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: i want to provide another update and express gratitude for your ongoing commitment to navigate the complexities of federal student aid. we are continuing to work closely with the irs to release a full list of fafsa® forms unaffected by recent tax data inconsistencies. we expect to start sending that list before the end of the week. once the department releases the full list later this week, schools will have all the total unaffected records. our goal remains to help schools package aid offers as quickly as possible. we will share updates throughout the week to ensure schools are ready to leverage the tools we are providing. at the same time, we understand schools are navigating through uncertainty and might need additional guidance. the department is providing comprehensive support and open communication during these times. fsa will host a tax data discrepancy and school support webinar today at 3 p.m. et. this session is designed to provide in depth insights about the tax discrepancies and identify available support to your schools. the webinar does not require prior registration, and it will be recorded and available under the “fafsa simplification” track in the fsa training center tomorrow, for future reference. recognizing the potential for schools to be overwhelmed due to the volume of information, we have streamlined fafsa simplification information resources on fsapartners.ed.gov. this platform serves as your gateway to the latest fafsa updates, detailed guidance, and an array of resources tailored for the higher education community. to ensure you remain at the forefront of all fafsa related developments, we encourage you and your teams to sign up for our subscription emails, available for daily or weekly dispatches. expect an update from me tomorrow morning with the latest fafsa related matters. thank you, rich cordray dear colleagues: over the last week, the u.s. department of education (department) has worked with the irs to investigate and correct three issues with inaccuracies or inconsistencies in tax data for a subset of students. you can find the full detail of these three issues in our april 1, 2024 electronic announcement (ea). as of monday, more than 6.6 million fafsa® forms have been successfully submitted. we have now processed nearly all applications received during this 2024 25 fafsa cycle, and we plan to extend our national engagement strategy to increase the number of fafsa completions both for students finishing high school and for students continuing in college. the department’s top priority is to help schools make aid offers to students as soon as possible. to that end, the department will help schools identify which institutional student information records (isirs) are accurate and which isirs the department intends to reprocess. the department expects that schools can continue packaging aid offers for students, as 80% of previously submitted fafsa forms have no known errors; those records are not affected by the previously described issues. beginning in the first half of april, we will reprocess an estimated 5% of processed fafsa forms to ensure students receive the financial aid for which they are eligible. where adjustments would result in less aid to students, we will not reprocess unless asked to do so by schools after exercising their professional judgment. we are working with the irs to release in the coming days a list of fafsa forms that will not be automatically reprocessed, which schools can use as they continue to package aid. you can read more about this guidance in our april 1, 2024 ea to provide further support to schools, we will host a new webinar on wednesday, april 3 about tax data discrepancies and school support. subject matter experts will discuss the recently identified tax discrepancies and review the support available to help schools identify and process unaffected fafsa forms. you do not need to register for the event, which will be recorded and made available on our fsa training center under the “fafsa simplification” track the following day. i know each of you is doing your part to ensure that federal student aid is available to students at your institution. we greatly appreciate your efforts and your partnership with the department. please keep reaching out to us, as you have been doing. secretary cardona made it very clear that he wants a direct line of communications between you and the department, and we are committed to getting you the answers and other information you need. these daily communications and webinars are intended to respond to your questions and concerns. thank you again for making sure students can access the federal student aid they deserve to pursue their educational goals. rich cordray dear colleagues: welcome to fafsa fast news, a new blog on the federal student aid (fsa) website dedicated to the implementation of the better fafsa. i am rich cordray, chief operating officer of fsa. on our fafsa fast news blog, you will hear directly from different voices across the u.s. department of education and fsa as part of our commitment to providing the most up to date information. our top priority is to make sure schools, families, scholarship organizations, and states have the information they need to bring higher education in reach for more students and families. first, i want to thank you for your extra efforts to implement the better fafsa, which i know is particularly challenging this year. we are working hard to address these challenges and ensure schools have the information needed to package and make aid offers as quickly as possible. to that end, the department has delivered institutional student information records known as isirs to the majority of schools, states, and designated scholarship organizations, and expects fafsa processing times to now keep pace with submissions. going forward, schools should receive student records within 1 3 business days after they are submitted. later today, we will provide more information about which applications were affected by issues with tax data provided by the irs on certain isirs and how schools can move forward with processing the isirs that were successfully delivered. and later this week, we will be hosting two webinars with fsa experts to talk about next steps on the tax data issue, as well as sharing the latest resources we are providing to schools and addressing common questions. we recognize how important it is for schools and families to have the information they need to package and receive aid offers. thank you for your partnership as we work together toward our shared goal of helping all students enroll in the college of their choice. we encourage you to bookmark this page and share it with your colleagues for regular status updates and resources related to the 2024 25 free application for federal student aid (fafsa®) form. rich cordray last modified: 01/13/2025 • published: 04/01/2024

sunday, february 9, 2025 msu freshman guard jase richardson (11) watches the court during a game between msu and bowling green at the breslin center on nov. 16, 2024 not every college athlete plays on the same court their father did 25 years earlier, with him watching from the crowd. but freshman guard jase richardson isn’t like every athlete. after missing the second half against ucla, richardson returned strong against oregon, setting career highs in nearly every category. he led no. 10 michigan state university basketball (19 4, 10 2 big ten) to an 86 74 comeback win over oregon (16 8, 5 8 big ten) after trailing by 14 at halftime in a season defining victory. the win marked msu head coach tom izzo’s 353rd big ten victory, tying bobby knight for the most in conference history. richardson’s breakout performance   29 points on 9 for 13 shooting   helped msu remain unbeaten at home. he knocked down three three pointers, went 6 for 8 from the free throw line and committed zero turnovers while adding five rebounds and a momentum shifting block in 35 minutes. msu’s first half was arguably its worst of the season. the spartans surrendered 50 points, including 10 three pointers, while attempting 13 fewer shots than oregon. at the break, msu accumulated nine turnovers, leading to oregon’s 21 points off of turnovers. msu’s turnovers fueled oregon’s first half dominance, helping the ducks build leads of 45 31 and 50 36 at halftime. in that time, oregon looked smoother than msu and matched its physicality. the ducks utilized driving to the basket and getting shots in the paint but also were able to find perimeter shots, mainly from jackson shelstad, who had 18 points in the first half and 10 of oregon’s first 16 points. "that was not a pretty first half," izzo said postgame. the second half was a complete turnaround. msu opened with a 12 0 run, then surged ahead 68 64 with a 15 2 stretch in just four minutes. that lead was fueled by three pointers, specifically from richardson. the second half belonged to richardson and company. richardson poured in 18 of his 29 points after halftime, igniting the spartans’ comeback as their go to playmaker. he stepped up and had a career night. he was the reason why msu was able to stay in the game and a main part of the spartans’ path to their win; with 13 minutes left in the game, it was unclear who would come out victorious, but with richardson’s use, msu looked smoother, stronger and more physical. "the team was the players on the floor, players on the bench, the players behind the bench and the fans in the stands. that was a team," izzo said. "it was about a 16,000 person team victory tonight, and for me, it just doesn’t get any better than that." on a larger scale, the game highlighted richardson’s leadership and talent. during his first start of the season, since redshirt freshman jeremy fears jr. was ruled out due to illness, he took initiative and led the team when senior guard jaden akins failed to, especially in the first half. akins’ off game actually proved that richardson is able to step up and get it done for the spartans. he’s a smooth player and has been consistent this season. if richardson stays another season in east lansing   rather than declaring for the nba draft   he’s poised to take over as msu’s leader. "there’s not many times that you have a run like that, a defense like that, rebounding like that, a performance by an individual like jase gave us and a fan base that was out of their freaking minds," izzo said. "so that’s a hell of a combination. i’m really happy for (richardson). he’s fought the fight, and he just keeps battling." msu will host indiana at breslin center on tuesday, feb. 11, at 9 p.m. the game will air on peacock. support student media! please consider donating to the state news and help fund the future of journalism. function myaddonefunction(spotx_ad_found) { if(spotx_ad_found) {} else {}}; function mobileandtabletcheck() { var check = false; (function(a){if(/(android|bb\d+|meego).+mobile|avantgo|bada\/|blackberry|blazer|compal|elaine|fennec|hiptop|iemobile|ip(hone|od)|iris|kindle|lge |maemo|midp|mmp|mobile.+firefox|netfront|opera m(ob|in)i|palm( os)?|phone|p(ixi|re)\/|plucker|pocket|psp|series(4|6)0|symbian|treo|up\.(browser|link)|vodafone|wap|windows ce|xda|xiino|android|ipad|playbook|silk/i.test(a)||/1207|6310|6590|3gso|4thp|50[1 6]i|770s|802s|a wa|abac|ac(er|oo|s\ )|ai(ko|rn)|al(av|ca|co)|amoi|an(ex|ny|yw)|aptu|ar(ch|go)|as(te|us)|attw|au(di|\ m|r |s )|avan|be(ck|ll|nq)|bi(lb|rd)|bl(ac|az)|br(e|v)w|bumb|bw\ (n|u)|c55\/|capi|ccwa|cdm\ |cell|chtm|cldc|cmd\ |co(mp|nd)|craw|da(it|ll|ng)|dbte|dc\ s|devi|dica|dmob|do(c|p)o|ds(12|\ d)|el(49|ai)|em(l2|ul)|er(ic|k0)|esl8|ez([4 7]0|os|wa|ze)|fetc|fly(\ |_)|g1 u|g560|gene|gf\ 5|g\ mo|go(\.w|od)|gr(ad|un)|haie|hcit|hd\ (m|p|t)|hei\ |hi(pt|ta)|hp( i|ip)|hs\ c|ht(c(\ | |_|a|g|p|s|t)|tp)|hu(aw|tc)|i\ (20|go|ma)|i230|iac( |\ |\/)|ibro|idea|ig01|ikom|im1k|inno|ipaq|iris|ja(t|v)a|jbro|jemu|jigs|kddi|keji|kgt( |\/)|klon|kpt |kwc\ |kyo(c|k)|le(no|xi)|lg( g|\/(k|l|u)|50|54|\ [a w])|libw|lynx|m1\ w|m3ga|m50\/|ma(te|ui|xo)|mc(01|21|ca)|m\ cr|me(rc|ri)|mi(o8|oa|ts)|mmef|mo(01|02|bi|de|do|t(\ | |o|v)|zz)|mt(50|p1|v )|mwbp|mywa|n10[0 2]|n20[2 3]|n30(0|2)|n50(0|2|5)|n7(0(0|1)|10)|ne((c|m)\ |on|tf|wf|wg|wt)|nok(6|i)|nzph|o2im|op(ti|wv)|oran|owg1|p800|pan(a|d|t)|pdxg|pg(13|\ ([1 8]|c))|phil|pire|pl(ay|uc)|pn\ 2|po(ck|rt|se)|prox|psio|pt\ g|qa\ a|qc(07|12|21|32|60|\ [2 7]|i\ )|qtek|r380|r600|raks|rim9|ro(ve|zo)|s55\/|sa(ge|ma|mm|ms|ny|va)|sc(01|h\ |oo|p\ )|sdk\/|se(c(\ |0|1)|47|mc|nd|ri)|sgh\ |shar|sie(\ |m)|sk\ 0|sl(45|id)|sm(al|ar|b3|it|t5)|so(ft|ny)|sp(01|h\ |v\ |v )|sy(01|mb)|t2(18|50)|t6(00|10|18)|ta(gt|lk)|tcl\ |tdg\ |tel(i|m)|tim\ |t\ mo|to(pl|sh)|ts(70|m\ |m3|m5)|tx\ 9|up(\.b|g1|si)|utst|v400|v750|veri|vi(rg|te)|vk(40|5[0 3]|\ v)|vm40|voda|vulc|vx(52|53|60|61|70|80|81|83|85|98)|w3c(\ | )|webc|whit|wi(g |nc|nw)|wmlb|wonu|x700|yas\ |your|zeto|zte\ /i.test(a.substr(0,4)))check = true})(navigator.useragent||navigator.vendor||window.opera); return check; } var bmobile = mobileandtabletcheck(), ascriptattributes = [ 'type="text/javascript" src="http://js.spotx.tv/easi/v1/85394.js" data spotx_ad_done_function="myaddonefunction" data spotx_ad_unit="incontent" data spotx_autoplay="1" data spotx_ad_volume="0" data spotx_loop="0" data spotx_collapse="1" data spotx_unmute_on_mouse="1"' ]; if (bmobile) { ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_content_width="300"'); ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_content_height="250"'); ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_channel_id="186661"'); } else { ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_content_width="608"'); ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_content_height="342"'); ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_unmute_on_mouse="1"'); ascriptattributes.push('data spotx_channel_id="186765"'); } document.write('<scr' + 'ipt ' + ascriptattributes.join(" ") + '><\/scr' + 'ipt>'); share and discuss “jase richardson shines in season defining win for msu men’s basketball” on social media. facebook twitter
supported by corrections that appeared in print on tuesday, june 18, 2024. an article on saturday about a review of new york state’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic under former gov. andrew m. cuomo misattributed a statement responding to a state audit of mr. cuomo’s performance during the crisis. the statement was from mr. cuomo’s spokesman, richard azzopardi, not mr. cuomo himself. the article also referred incorrectly to the source of a requirement that nursing homes accept covid 19 patients from hospitals. it was a health department directive, not an executive order by mr. cuomo. an article on sunday about native american tribes reclaiming land in california referred incorrectly to the los angeles aqueduct. it transports water to los angeles from the owens river, not owens lake. an article on june 11 about a judge striking one element out of donald j. trump’s classified documents case, misidentified the source of a rule that permits prosecutors to tell the jury about “bad acts” committed by a defendant that are not directly part of the charges in a case. it comes from the federal rules of evidence, not from the federal rules of criminal procedure. an article on june 10 about donald j. trump’s probation interview, misstated which aspects of the interview were approved by justice juan m. merchan. while justice merchan approved the presence of mr. trump’s lawyer at the interview, he did not decide on the question of it being conducted remotely. the new york city probation department made that decision. an article on june 7 about spacex’s starship successful return from space misstated the distance of the spacex launch site from the mexican border. the launchpad is 2.5 miles the border, not within a few hundred feet. david brooks’s column on friday misstated the name of a study begun by lewis terman. it is “genetic studies of genius,” not “genetic study of geniuses.” the article also rendered incorrectly a quotation from t.s. eliot’s “burnt norton.” it reads, “the trilling wire in the blood,” not “thrilling.”

a story on page a 4 of the wednesday, feb. 5, 2025, edition about house bill 35, titled children’s health protection zones, gave an incorrect reference for a school in hobbs. the story should have named jefferson elementary school as one surrounded by oil and gas wells, according to a commen… a story on monte del sol charter school's proposed gymnasium published saturday, feb. 1, 2025, incorrectly named the school's groundbreaking day as april 5. it is april 25.
