San Diego State University will remember 9/11 at a special ceremony starting at 10 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 11 at the Campanile Walkway flagpole in front of Hepner Hall.

More than 60 uniformed cadets from SDSU's ROTC Army, Navy and Air Force programs will participate in the ceremony. Cadets will lower the flag to half-mast at the beginning of the ceremony, followed by brief readings and a moment of silence. The ceremony will conclude with the playing of TAPS by a trumpeter from the music department and a short prayer.

"If you look at SDSU's War Memorial, there are students who have passed away as a result of 9/11," said Captain Marc Jason, assistant professor of military science. "We need to continue to look back and remember the folks who gave their lives for our freedom, honor them, and continue to heal and move forward together."
