University of Miami (BFA)
Loretta Rogers’ University of Miami degree is documented as a BA, not a BFA.
Full reasoning
Multiple authoritative biographies describe Loretta Rogers’ University of Miami degree as a Bachelor of Arts (BA). The University of Toronto’s Chancellors’ Circle page says she “held a BA from the University of Miami,” and Rogers’ own proxy circulars likewise say she “holds a B.A., University of Miami.” Those sources contradict the article’s claim that her degree was a BFA.

Forbes’ 2015 billionaire listings put Loretta Robinson & family at $5.8 billion, not $5.5 billion.
Full reasoning
The Forbes source used for this statement does not match the number given here. Forbes’ profile for “Loretta Robinson & family” shows $5.8B and labels it “2015 Billionaires Net Worth as of 3/2/15.” Forbes’ 2015 billionaire list likewise lists “Loretta Robinson & family” at $5.8 billion. That contradicts the article’s claim of US$5.5 billion.

Melinda Rogers-Hixson
Her daughter’s surname is spelled Rogers-Hixon, not Rogers-Hixson, in official sources.

That contradicts the article’s spelling “Melinda Rogers-Hixson.”
