Correction Concerning Memorial Day

Due to a typesetting error, the Three-Year Academic Calendar in last week's issue did not have the dates for Memorial Day (No classes) in the correct columns. This year, there will be no classes on May 27; next year, on May 26 and in 2004, on May 31.

Please note, there is a corrected (PDF) version on Almanac's website, www.upenn.edu/almanac.
