U. Minnesota student government rejects annual recognition of 9/11

With all due respect, I don’t see the need for an official college recognition of 9/11. Those who wish to reflect upon it are, of course, welcome to do so, to take a moment of silence and so forth. But I don’t routinely see cities or other communities (except those directly involved) doing so. At this point, September 11 gets treated as just another day where people travel, go to dinner, etc like any other day. The immediacy has passed.
