Attention University Community: Following is the latest information, as of Saturday morning, from Syracuse University of campus activities in response to Tuesday's terrorist incidents. This information supplements previous information packets. U.S. Flag Flies Atop the Carrier Dome This afternoon, the Carrier Dome staff installed an American flag measuring 6 feet by 10 feet to the center lightning rod of the Dome roof. The flag is flying at half staff and is illuminated at night by a spotlight that was also installed today. Remarkable Response to Call for Clothing Items Destined for NYC Relief Workers Under the category of "Wow!": The effort begun Thursday and ending Friday at 5 p.m. to gather T-shirts and socks to be donated to relief workers in New York City was nothing short of phenomenal. Close to 200 boxes and bags of new shirts and socks were collected at the Schine Student Center and Hendricks Chapel. Physical Plant staff transported the thousands of items to a tractor trailer at ShoppingTown Mall; Salvation Army drivers will deliver them to waiting relief workers in Manhattan. Many of the shirts and socks had messages from the donors such as "We love you," "You are our heroes" and "How can we ever thank you." Says Pam Kirwin Heintz, director of the Center for Public and Community Service: "The human spirit is well and strong at SU and in our community in spite of the pain it is suffering at the moment." Indeed. CPCS Provides Shuttle to Regional Transportation Center Any student needing transportation from campus to the Regional Transportation Center terminal Saturday or Sunday should call 443-4566, and the Center for Public and Community Service's on-call van drivers will be dispatched to pick up and transport the student from his/her residence to the Regional Transportation Center. Students need to allow enough time because the drivers need to get to campus to pick up the van. Students should be prepared to show their SU I.D. in order to access the van. Beginning Monday, this service will continue, but students should call CPCS at 443-3051 Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. After 5 p.m. weekdays, the Saturday-Sunday procedure described above should be followed. Aid for Students Directly Affected by Tuesday's Terrorist Acts Any SU student who has lost a supporting parent, custodian or spouse as a result of the terrorist attacks in New York City, Washington, D.C., or Pennsylvania will be afforded special financial consideration. Those who must take an official leave of absence for the current (Fall 2001) semester will receive a grant for all pending charges for the fall semester and will be eligible to receive special financial consideration in the Spring 2002 semester. Students whose supporting parent, custodian or spouse has lost employment and/or income because of the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., will be eligible for special grant assistance for the current academic year. Such responses will be individual in nature and will be predicated on the particular circumstances of each case. All students who have been affected by these tragedies should make their situations known to the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarship Programs in Archbold North as soon as possible. Opportunity to Reflect Offered on the Web, in the Syracuse Record A reminder: Members of the University community are invited to offer their reflections on Tuesday's tragedies in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania to be shared with others who are affected by what has happened.
