A story in yesterday's Kansan, "Research quest loses player," incorrectly stated that research costs in the 1995-96 and 2002-03 school years were covered in part by tuition money. Researching funding in those two years breaks down as follows:
In 2002-03, $224 million in total research funding includes $140 million from grants and other external sources. The remaining $84 million is covered with institutional funds, including state funds for organized research units, general purpose research funds and unrecovered facilities and administrative costs.
In 1995-96, $124 million in total research funding included $94 million from grants and external sources and $30 million from institutional funds.

Abnormal Indeed: The Lisa Donnelly Project performs "Peace of Mind" in front of Dr. Stephen Ilardi's Abnormal Psychology class in 3139 Wescoe. Dr. Ilardi, a self-diagnosed "music junkie," said he asked the band to play yesterday because he has a long standing tradition of playing music before classes that has some relevance to class topics. Donnelly, a former student of Dr. Ilardi's, said she wrote "Peace of Mind" when she was about to graduate and had to cope with anxiety.
