Former
students
recount
attacks
By BRANDIE LlFFICK
THE BATTALION
For Kevin Ward, Tuesday
started on a high note. He left
his downtown Washington D.C.,
neighborhood for an early inter
view with a potential employer.
But everything changed when
he arrived at the office and
learned of the attacks on the
World Trade Center.
“I was completely stunned. 1
was literally beside myself,”
Ward said. “I was in New York
If I look out my
southeast window, I
can see the smoke
coming up from the
Pentagon. This type
of thing always
happens somewhere
else, not in your own
backyard.
— Kevin Ward
Class of 1999
last week, and it seemed unreal
that all of this could possibly be
happening there.”
Ward, Class of 1999, lives
only eight blocks from the
White House.
“If I look out my southeast
window, I can see the smoke
coming up from the Pentagon.
This type of thing always hap
pens somewhere else, not in
your own backyard,” Ward said.
Ward said the city was
unusually quiet.
“I live in a great area with a
lot of young people in it.
Usually, my neighborhood is
loud and fun. Today it’s so
quiet. Everybody’s home from
work, just listening to what’s
going on. We’re all hoping that
we’ll wake up tomorrow and
this will have all been a bad
dream,” Ward said. “The whole
town has a quiet, eerie feeling
to it.”
Assistant dean of general
studies at Columbia University,
Sondra Medina-Kopytek, said
that although the Manhattan uni
versity is approximately 7 miles
away from the World Trade
Center, students there are
already dealing with the emo
tional effects of the attacks.
“This has already hit students
hard. Classes were canceled
today to let them get home and
be with their families,” Medina-
Kopytek said.
Medina-Kopytek, Class of
1991 is a former lecturer in the
Department of Journalism. She
compared the atmosphere sur
rounding the campus Tuesday
afternoon to that of College
Station when the 1999 Texas
Aggie Bonfire collapsed.
“When Bonfire fell, the stu
dent body was asking them
selves, ‘Was my loved one
working on it?’ It’s the same
here. Students are trying to
locate their loved ones and fam
ily members that worked around
the Trade Center,” Medina-
Kopytek said. “We are just
going to deal with it in the best
way we know how.”

Safety precautions
taken by local police
By Jon Niven
THE BATTALION
The University, Bryan and College Station
police departments are taking precautions to main
tain the safety of Texas A&M, its students and the
surrounding community.
UPD and BPD have increased their police
forces. UPD has called in off-duty officers and
plans to keep a strong force on duty throughout
Wednesday.
Bob Wiatt, director of UPD, said they are tak
ing extra precautions for fear of retaliation against
international students because of the widespread
assumption that Islamic extremists are responsible
for the terrorist attacks.
Wiatt said the University apartments are home
to many international students and security has
been heightened in those areas. He outlined one
program that UPD currently has in place to aid
international students.
“Officers are assigned [to international stu
dents] so police officers will not be feared,” Wiatt
said,“because some of these students come from
areas where the police are not seen as friendly.”
Bryan Police Chief Ken Burton said his depart
ment is prepared to take action if needed.
“We have taken a wait-and-see attitude,”
Burton said. “We have made sure that we have
more-than-adequate resources.”
Dr. William Perry, executive associate provost
of A&M, is filling in for Provost Dr. Ronald
Douglas, who was at a conference Tuesday. Perry
released a memorandum concerning safety on
campus.
“[The community’s] efforts to promote safety
on campus and in the community will do much to
demonstrate that this University is a caring insti-
U
We are not in any
danger right now.
— Bob Wiatt
director of UPD
fution and is one that does not condone thought
less acts,” Perry stated in a memorandum.
Although police departments are at a high level
of alert, Wiatt and Burton said, things are calm
right now and residents should not worry.
“So far it has been quiet,” Wiatt said. “No con
cerns. We are not in any danger right now.”
