The Union Weekly, a student newspaper at California State University, Long Beach, will issue an apology for an article that ridiculed a powwow and its participants.

On Sunday, the American Indian Student Council met with Kevin O'Brien, the editor-in-chief of the paper and Noah Kelly, the writer of the article. Kelly apologized to Indian students during the meeting, AISC said on its website.

A written apology and an explanation has been published in this week's issue of the paper, which was released on campus today. AISC said the issue also includes letters to the editor about the offending article.

The article, titled "Pow Wow Wow Yippee Yo Yippy Yay," appeared in the March 14 issue of the Union Weekly.
