In partnership with the New York Blood Center, John Jay College of Criminal Justice is hosting a blood drive on Sept. 16 to honor those who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. Make an appointment: ow.ly/i79250WSbvL

At John Jay College, the magnitude of 9/11 played out in the days and weeks that followed as the list of victims grew to include 67 students and alumni. The names of those lost are etched in a memorial on campus whose centerpiece is a twisted steel beam from one of the World Trade Center towers.

No college experienced the impact of 9/11 more immediately than the Borough of Manhattan Community College, whose Tribeca campus became engulfed in the day’s destruction. Windows were blown out when the planes hit. Debris and dust filled campus buildings after the towers fell.

Big things are happening at Queens College this fall! 🎉Discover why QC is the college of your future on Tuesday, September 16. 👀 www.qc.cuny.edu/admissions/t...
