FILE - In this Aug. 1, 2016, file photo, Nelson Leissner pauses in memory of his sister, Kathleen Leissner Whitman, at the memorial during the 50th anniversary remembrance of the University of Texas at Austin tower shootings, at the school in Austin, Texas. The incorrect form of a Latin word has been replaced on the granite memorial for victims of the 1966 shooting. The Austin American-Statesman reports that names of the 17 people slain were etched on the monument below the Latin word "Interfectum," equivalent to the English word "killed," which UT classics professors say was grammatically incorrect and negative in tone.
