Several Keene State profs are working together to explore the impact that the events of 9/11 had on current students and alumni. We remember teaching courses on that day and talking with students.

Where were you on Sept. 11, 2001? What were you doing? What did you think? How have the events of that day affected you?

We’d like to have a few KSC alums participate in the 9-TEN-11 Project and tell their stories of how their lives have been shaped in the last decade. Check out the Project’s web page and the work that’s been done so far.

If you’d like to contribute, please write a paragraph (or more) addressing one or more of the following questions:

• What do you remember from 9/11?
• What were your feelings?
• How did your coworkers, friends, and/or family respond?

You can write about the first thoughts that come to you, or you might like to take a few days and reflect on your response. Either approach is welcome, and we’re sure that current students will benefit from hearing from you, as alumni.

Email your response to Peggy Walsh, professor of sociology. We’ll add your information to our web site, including your name and year of graduation. (We won’t publish your name if you don’t want us to, but please let us know who you are and when you graduated.) Your submission may be edited for length and clarity, if necessary.

Thanks for considering. We are very glad that you stay involved with Keene State.
