The publication used one student's name after he had denied the magazine permission to do so, according to The Daily Princetonian. Peter Greeves, a junior at the University of Maryland, did not allow his name to be used.

Kopp said Business Today used Greeves' name only because of a "lay-out error." Kopp said that the staff has not yet decided whether to print a retraction statement. She added that Greeves said the error wasn't important to him.

But in an interview with The Princetonian, Greeves, who could not be reached for comment this week, said, "I think it's sneaky. I really disapprove of the way they did it."

"People know our magazine and whatever we try to do shouldn't be overshadowed by this one thing," said sophomore Leigh Ornstein, associate publisher of Business Today. "It wasn't done maliciously and it wasn't done to glorify our magazine," she said.

"I think all of us had some problems with [the letter writing policy], but it was the kind of case where all of us had problems and no one came together and said anything," she said.

Kopp said she herself would never allow her name to be placed on anything she didn't write, but said, "It's a matter of personal choice that I wouldn't do it. I don't work that way. If someone else does work that way, it's their choice."

Kopp said she is somewhat surprised at the extent of the reaction to the incident.

"A lot of people I've talked to honestly don't think it's that big a deal," she said. But Princetonian "reporters do seem to think it's the world's worst offense, and they've found a lot of people to support that view."
