CORRECTION: MAR. 8, 2011

The Mar. 8 article "Allston Residents Concerned About Harvard Capital Campaign Priorities" incorrectly referred to Tom Lally as Tom Willey. His correct last name is Lally. Additionally, the story misattributed a statement by a University spokesperson about Allston's priority in the forthcoming capital campaign. The statement was made by Kevin Casey, associate vice president for public affairs and communications.
