A 9/11 Rememberance service will be held this Friday in the WSU Terrell Atruim. Starts at 11 am, with opening colors from WSU&UOFI ROTC joint color guard. Service is hosted by the WSU Veterans and Military Affilliated Student Services. Refreshments/finger foods served throughout the service.
Terrell garage is the best place to park, but is a pay to park through the AMP APP.

It is hard to believe that this will mark 25 years since 9/11. The young people we work with and are surrounded by today have very little or no knowledge about the events, sacrifices, and losses that day and the impact on our nation. Remember, share, teach, and never forget.

Literally my office

ACTUALLY IN THIS DAY AND AGE....TURNING YOUR DESK OR CHAIR TO FACE THE DOOR IS NOT A BAD IDEA !! This cartoon is pretty exaggerated....but, there may be co-workers who would not even understand the meaning of a Veteran's request to face the door ! DO YOU STILL POSITION YOURSELF IN A RESTAURANT OR OTHER PUBLIC PLACES SO YOU GET A BETTER VIEW OF ENTRANCES ?
