UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR

September 8, 2003

TO: ALL MEMBERS OF THE CAMPUS COMMUNITY

RE: September 11 Anniversary Events

On Thursday, September 11, 2003, we will mark the second anniversary of the 
tragedies of twenty-four months ago in New York, Virginia, and Western 
Pennsylvania.  Although two years now separate us from these events, their 
impact continues to affect our nation and personal lives in many ways. 
Individually, each of us may reflect upon these events in our own personal 
way; however, I invite you to join me and other members of our campus 
community at the Memorial Union Flagpole to observe a collective moment of 
silence for those who were lost and the heroic actions of many.

There will be brief remarks followed by the ringing of chimes atop Memorial 
Union at noon.  An honor guard of campus firefighters and police will lower 
the flag and we will observe a moment of silence. The chimes will then 
sound "America the Beautiful."

A brief program will also be held at the UC Davis Medical Center at noon in 
the courtyard of the Patient Services Support Building.

We understand that anniversaries are often powerful reminders of the 
original events and can evoke the same powerful emotions. The following UC 
Davis resources are available to provide assistance to faculty, staff, and 
students who wish to seek it:  Student Counseling Center in North Hall, 
752-0871, and the Academic and Staff Assistance Program, 112 A Street, 
752-2727 (campus), and 2730 Stockton Boulevard, Suite 3117, 916-734-2727 
(UCDMC).

Release time is appropriate with supervisory approval.

Larry N. Vanderhoef
Chancellor
