THE BATTALION
One year since America was
blindsided by terrorist attacks,
students such as latum Oman
find ways to honor the memory
of the tragedy, while celebrat
ing the American spirit.
"I plan on lighting a candle
to put in my window, as a way
of reminding people of what an
important day it is, said Oman,
a senior psychology major.
While many students feel
the anniversary of Sept. I 1
should be a day of remem
brance, their opinions differ on
how it should be spent.
James Stafford, a junior
bioenvironmental science
major, said though it is a very
serious day, people should go
about their normal lives.
“I don't think everyone
should just stay at home,
Stafford said. "I don’t mean we
should be out celebrating what
happened on Sept. II, hut
instead, be with your friends
and celebrate your freedom
and how far America has come
this year.”
For those students who
decide to take an active role in
honoring Sept. 11, Texas A&M
is hosting several memorial
events throughout the day,
which are listed at
www.tamu.edu. through the
Additionally, several students
report receiving e-mails telling
them to drive with their head
lights on and wear red, white
or blue on Wednesday
Whether students feel the\
should go on with their daily
lives, spend a day Of *|Uiet
reflection or surround them
selves with fellow Americans,
everyone can find their own way
to pay tribute and remember.
Jenn Bradfield, a junior
sports management major,
said she wants to spend time
with friends, but also uants to
treat Sept. 11 as a somber day.
“I don’t really want to go
out or do anything like that,
Bradfield said. ”1 am going to
spend this day just chilling out
with the people that I love.
Something like this makes me
think of how lucky I am.
As well as students’ person
al activities, the MSC and the
George Bush Library are host
ing a variety of events tor stu
dents to attend. Among r*- -
events is the MSC Town
healing process.
