- Last issue's story about Tent City 3's move to the campus of Seattle University ("Hearing the Call" RC Jan. 19) misidentified the subject of a photo. That was Joe Orlando, director of campus ministry, not university president Steven Sundborg. We omitted the photo credit off the following excellent picture of Franklin Bullock ("Gone, But Not Forgotten," Jan 19). The photo was taken by Mark Sullo

First things First. Get Involved. Take Action. Ending voting discrimination, Page 11
- Issue: More than 150,000 potential voters in Washington cannot vote because of past felony convictions. They’ve completed their sentences and are usually struggling to survive because good jobs are hard to come by, even without a criminal record. As it stands, they remain unable to vote until they pay off their court-imposed debt.
