Colorado Law to Hold Remembrance Ceremony in Honor Of Sept. 11 Victims

At noon on Sept. 11, Colorado Law and its Law Alumni Board will hold a 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony at the new Wolf Law Building on the Boulder campus.

The ceremony will recognize the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Organizers of the ceremony also will unveil a bronze plaque dedicated to the memory of CU alumni killed during the attacks.

The ceremony, which is open to the public, will be held on the outdoor patio in front of the main entrance to the law school.

An American Legion color guard will participate and David Getches, dean of the law school, will emcee the program. Law school alumnus John Carson; representatives of the CU Law Alumni Board, student organizations and the Boulder Fire Department; and others will make comments.

Following a university-wide moment of silence, the ceremony will conclude with the unveiling of the memorial plaque that will be located on the grounds of the Wolf Law Building.
