Correction

The Nov. 28 Page 1 article "RU-486 pill OK'd by FDA, not UH" erroneously referred to the non-surgical abortion pill as the "morning after" drug. In fact, the "morning after" drug is a post-coital contraceptive using estrogen and progesterone, while RU-486 is an abortifact with no relation. RU-486 is unavailable in the United States despite its recent FDA approval.

Also, the Nov. 29 staff editorial incorrectly stated that the UH Health Center's staff includes specialized doctors who concentrate on pre-natal care. It does not.

The Daily Cougar regrets these errors.
