Letter to the Editor Lame correction I am writing in reference to your mistake in the Thursday, Nov. 10 issue of The Daily Collegian, where you referred to Professor Alexander Wolszczan as a professor of astrology, and then again referred to the department of astronomy as the department of astrology. I feel quite outraged and shocked that this was printed, not only because two English words have been confused, but because it shows a general lack of respect for a very respectable science.
Astronomy is the study of the stars, of which the sun is one.
Recall that the sun is the source of all life on Earth. Astrology begins with the same five letters as astronomy, but the similarity really ends there. Please refer to a dictionary if you are still confused. I am also quite disappointed with your rather lame correction printed in the Friday, Nov. 11 issue. You make it seem that this was just a minor typo, which I could believe if it had only happened once.
