Bell Tower to ring as Sept. 11 tribute

The bells of the Purdue Bell Tower will peal for two minutes today (Sept. 11) as the University honors the memory of the victims of the 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States. The bells will peal at 3:25 p.m. to give faculty, staff and students a chance to pause and remember those who died in the attacks.

In addition, a group of Purdue student organizations and local businesses are holding a 9/11 Never Forget Memorial on Purdue Mall. For more about the memorial, see http://news.uns.purdue.edu/x/2008b/080909WhittakerMemorial.html.
