CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) - In a story March 4 about Oregon State University’s fundraising campaign, The Associated Press reported erroneously the amount the school raised. It was more than $1.01 billion, not more than $1.1 billion.
A corrected version of the story is below:
OSU fundraising campaign raises $1.01 billion
Oregon State University fundraising campaign raises $1.01 billion for scholarships, faculty
CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) - Oregon State University has raised more than $1.01 billion in its funding-raising campaign.
The university says it passed its $1 billion goal nearly a year early, and the campaign will continue the rest of this year.

More than 100,000 people have contributed to the campaign so far. And, 177 donors gave $1 million or more.
