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.”
