CORRECTION
Friday's University Daily Kansan contained errors. The article, "One-on-one fitness," stated a personal trainer helped a 350-pound diabetic drop 285 pounds. The article should have said that the personal trainer helped the diabetic drop to 285 pounds. Also, the article identified Richard Johnson as the dean of liberal arts and sciences. Johnson is the dean of students.

Past KU student's trial postponed
The trial of David Ryan Jay, a KU student from Summer 1998 until Spring 2001, was scheduled to begin this morning. It was postponed until May 16 so that the State can conduct a psychological assessment, Richard Guinn, assistant director attorney for Johnson County, said.
Jay is suspected of starting 17 fires, including a fire in Watson Library in March 2004.
The defenses' assessment of Jay found that he had mental issues beyond initial assessments at his arrest, Guinn said.
Jay pleaded not guilty to 13 counts of arson and one count of aggravated arson on July 7, 2004.
The fires caused almost $8 million in damages.
