In an article titled "U.Va. Selects Design Finalists" in the Sept. 9 edition of the Daily Progress several errors were made regarding the University's Center for the Arts architect selection competition. The committee itself is chaired by University Provost Gene Block, not President John T. Casteen III. The four finalists are: London-based Foster and Partners in partnership with Charlottesville's VMDO Architects; the partnership of William Rawn Associates, Architects, Kyu Sung Woo Architects, and Glave & Holmes Associates; Robert A.M. Stern Architects; and Rafael Vinoly Architects. Vinoly had been omitted from the article.

Also, the South Lawn Project, also referenced in this story, is not a design competition. Architects will be chosen through regular procurement procedures.
