It’s been pointed out to me that I erred on one point in my Boston Magazine article on Larry Summers’ resignation. About two-thirds of the way through the article, I wrote that Peter Ellison had been appointed dean of the graduate school by Summers.

That’s not true—it was Neil Rudenstine who appointed Ellison dean.

Not a central point of the article, but still, one hates to make any mistake, and I’m happy to correct it.
