Niagara University to Observe 20th Anniversary of 9/11
Niagara University’s Veteran Services Office will host a 9/11 remembrance ceremony to honor area first responders and those impacted by the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The ceremony begins at approximately 9:00 a.m. at the flag pole between Alumni Chapel and Glynn Hall (formerly St. Vincent’s Hall).
Keynote speaker Master Sgt. Tara Wichtowski will share her experience of being at Ground Zero shortly after the attacks. The entire campus community is welcome and encouraged to attend.
In addition, at the front of campus facing route 104, Niagara University’s Border Community SERVICE program has planted 2,977 American flags, one for each victim who was killed on 9/11. The campus community is welcome to visit this space over the coming week. All events are open to the public.
