<div dir="ltr"><p>Dear Campus Community,</p>
<p>This morning, members of our campus and local community gathered at Hawkins Pond for a ceremony marking the anniversary of September 11, 2001. We honored the lives lost, remembered those in our Cardinal community connected to that day, and reflected on the lessons of resilience and service that continue to guide us.</p>
<p>I share below the statement issued this afternoon by Chancellor King and the SUNY Board of Trustees in remembrance of this day.</p>
<p>Sincerely,<br>
Dr. Alexander Enyedi<br>

country came together in a remarkable show of strength to set aside differences and unite to persevere against terrorism. We remember today that feeling of unity, and recognize and honor the brave first responders who sacrificed their lives and health on 9/11
and during its aftermath.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

the country faced in the aftermath of September 11, and ensure they reflect upon the idea that the United States is a nation that is strongest when we stand together.
