Hey, UMass Lowell. Who's ready for fall?
Like so many people, I remember exactly where I was on September 11, 2001.
I was in Washington, D.C., serving in Congress when I heard the news. I remember the fear & uncertainty of that day & how difficult it was to comprehend what was happening. (1/3)
Twenty-five years later, we remember September 11, 2001, and the lives forever changed that day. We honor those we lost, those who answered the call to help, and the families, friends, and communities who came together to support one another through an unimaginable time.
