Coming Together As Temple University stu- dents began their day on September 11, 2001. word of the attacks on the World Trade Center and Penta- gon spread across the cam- pus. Many gathered around a car outside Speakman Hall to hear the latest news briefing, while others kept themselves glued to any TV they could find. Disbelief, fear and uncertainty are only a few of the emotions the stu- dents were overcome by. The University established phone banks to New York and Washington. provided counseling ser- vices and held blood drives and prayer servi- ces. Students became completely immersed in the aftermath. They did everything in their pow- er to help those affected by September 11, 2001. Even in the wake of trag- edy. Temple students showed their pride and ability to overcome ad- versity by uniting. — Kate Hagenhuch moriam 11, 2001 Photo B : Kate Hagenbueh The marquee on the corner of Broad and Norris Streets displayed the University ' s sympathy in wake of the events on 9 1 1 01. fef| fer m« h lE J| Attention students ■ PHONE BANK V£H YORK CALLS Tutlleman 101 I I ?■%■■ Tl ' %■ ' i On Friday.
