FOR THE RECORD

Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker did not say, as suggested in Sunday's New River Valley Economy section, that only 16 job openings were considered essential.

Hincker said that the university, despite a shrinking budget, would continue to hire people to fill essential positions. Tech's job hot line advertised 16 jobs in mid-December.
