Dominguez, who is in charge of Harvard students abroad, said yesterday that out of three University students who were in the country when the protests began, two graduate students have been safely evacuated out of Egypt, while the third, a doctoral student, has chosen to stay to continue his research.

This article has been revised to reflect the following correction and clarification.
CORRECTION: FEB. 3, 2011.
The Feb. 1 article "Egypt Ready for Change, Professors Say" incorrectly stated that Ahmed Ragab had referenced that military police had fired on Egyptian protesters. In fact, Ragab referenced riot police.
CLARIFICATION: FEB. 3, 2011.
The Feb. 1 article "Egypt Ready for Change, Professors Say" included a headline that mischaracterized the level of disagreement among Harvard professors. The headline has been revised.
