Get Herald RSSOn Monday, Feb. 27, The Herald published a guest opinions column by Jason Carr '09 titled "Why I'm not recycling." It was later discovered that several sentences of the column closely resembled specific phrasing from John Tierney's article "Recycling is Garbage," which appeared in the June 30, 1996 issue of the New York Times Magazine.
The Herald operates under the tacit understanding that columnists honestly represent the authorship of their articles and accurately cite all sources. The editorial board apologizes to Herald readers for having allowed this article to be published and assures them of The Herald's continued commitment to journalistic integrity.
