Marquette Remembers September 11th
Students to Honor Those Who Lost Their Lives in Terrorist
Attacks
Released:
Sept. 9, 2005
Members of the Marquette community will gather Sunday, Sept.
11 to remember those who were lost in the terrorist attacks
four years ago. The service will take place at 3:00 p.m. at
the flags in front of the Raynor Memorial Libraries at 1355
W. Wisconsin Ave.
Marquette's ROTC Color Guard will
be on hand to post the colors . The short service
will include prayers and remarks by students.
The flagpoles in front of the Raynor Memorial Libraries were
erected to provide a prominent and central location for the
American flag after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. A plaque
at the site reads, "This flag display is a tribute to
the men and women who serve our country and uphold its ideals.
The students of Marquette University are grateful for the
sacrifices these individuals have made, which enable the freedoms
we all enjoy. In this spirit, we will strive to be men and
women for others.”
