international awareness.
“We are aJJ Americans, no matter where we
originate from, and we are all together in this,"
Click said. “This march is for world peace.
That may be idealistic, but we want to show
that this campus is united.”
International Student Association President
Archana Ramaswamy and Student Body
President Schuyler Houser will address the
crowd, and students will march in a circular
route around the campus that begins and ends
at the Academic Plaza. A moment of silence
will follow the march.
“A&M is known for Aggies and the way we
stick together,” said Ramaswamy, a senior
accounting major. “We are united, and we come
together regardless of the culture, to hold hands
in this moment of sadness.”
Yesterday, Houser told a group of students
gathered in the MSC Flagroom that all Aggies
are in mourning.
“This is undoubtedly the most tragic event
on American soil of our generation.” Houser
said. “In our darkest times, however, we find
the best in our American people, and in fact,
the best in people all around the world. There
are students at Texas A&M University from all
50 states and 54 countries. We are all Aggies."
The Peace March is a time for students to
show their public support for one another and
to grieve for the estimated 10,000 people who
died in the terrorist attacks, Houser said.
The terrorists to blame for Tuesday’s attacks
are, in all likelihood, not affiliated with this
campus, she said.

how vulnerable the mansion can
be. It was reopened Wednesday
for regular tours and some 400
people streamed through,
receiving small American flags
as they left.
The Bush administration was
eager to explain Wednesday, in
considerable detail, why Bush
did not return immediately to
Washington and take clear
charge after the terrorists who
struck at New York’s World
Trade Center turned to the
nation’s capital.
Throughout Tuesday, images
of the Pentagon in flames —
smashed by a hijacked airliner
— and White House aides flee
ing across Pennsylvania Avenue
provided a sharp contrast with
pictures of Bush heading for an
underground bunker hundreds
of miles away.
Fleischer said national secu
rity officials learned that both
the White House and Air Force
One were targets just as Bush’s
Boeing 747 lifted off Tuesday
morning in Sarasota, Fla., where
the president was to make an
education speech. He already
had announced on national tele
vision that he was hastening
back to Washington. That plan
was scrambled in mid-flight,
and all who were aboard Air
Force One — for a destination
then unknown — were ordered
to turn off their cell phones lest
signals from the phones give
away the plane’s location.
At that time, there still were
reports of unidentified planes in
the air despite a Federal
Aviation Administration order
instructing all planes in U.S. air
space to land at the nearest air;
port, Fleischer said.
Back in Washington the
White House had been evacuat
ed and Secret Service snipers
with automatic rifles sealed off a
two-block perimeter. Vice
President Dick Cheney
remained inside the complex
and was shuttled among several
“secure locations,’’ including
the Situation Room in the base
ment of the West Wing, where
he and National Security
Adviser Condoleezza Rice were
in touch with Bush by telephone
and videoconference.
Under a tight wrap of secre
cy, Bush first flew to Bin
Air Force Base in Lotmixu
