In last month's Auxiliary column, it was erroneously reported that the ASME Auxiliary co-sponsored nine ASME Clarke FIRST Scholarships when it actually helped finance 10 of the scholarships.

The Auxiliary-which subsidized half of each of the ASME Clarke FIRST Scholarships-contributed a total of $25,000 for the scholarships, not $22,500, as reported in July. This brought the total amount of money awarded in scholarships by the ASME Auxiliary this year to $107,000.

The Auxiliary also underwrote 18 undergraduate scholarships, which were funded in the amount of $2,000 each, to the following students:

1) David Breeze, Arizona State University
2) Christopher Odom, University of Alabama
3) Lisa Burton, Duke University
4) Justin Mercer, Youngstown State
5) Marianne So, University of California Los Angeles
6) Elizabeth Diaz, Florida Institute of Technology
7) Daniel Hanna, Drexel University
8) Jane Petrus, Louisiana Tech University
9) Paul Leonard, University of Missouri-Rolla
10) Blake Stanley, University of Southern California
11) Ryan Stobbs, University of Cincinnati
12) Daniel Scholborg, University of Cincinnati
13) Khoa Lu , University of Alabama
14) Rocky Portillo, Louisiana Tech University
15) Thomas Wenning, University of Dayton
16) Richard Ali, California Maritime Academy
17) Audrey Earnshaw, University of Colorado
18) Paul Rivard, University of Florida
