U-M campus remembers
9/11
The University's
remembrance of the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks began in the shadowy light of
pre-dawn and ended in a glow of candlelight.
The first event of the day was a mural
painting at U-M-Flint that started in
the early morning hours, and the last
was a reverent candlelight vigil at the
Diag where U-M President Mary Sue Coleman
spoke of healing and hope. Other events
included moments of silence, a public
health forum, the dedication of a plaque
honoring the 18 alumni who died in the
attacks, the Josh Rosenthal Lecture in
honor of one of the alumni, a symposium
about terrorism and globalization, and
a concert featuring the "Star-Spangled
Banner" and Mozart's "Lacrymosa" from
Requiem.
