Campus joins nation in mourning for lives lost in terrorist attacks By Jennifer Knight Prospector reporter The events of September 11 shocked the world, the nation, and the community of Carroll College. As the broadcast stations plunged into their 96 hours of news coverage, the Carroll campus also prepared for mourning and under standing. Faculty, staff, students, and Helena community members joined together in this time of national need and loss. Televisions were set up in the Cube lounge, St. Charles Hall, Corrette Library, and O'Connell Hall so students, faculty, and staff could remain informed on the latest happenings. A prayer service was quickly scheduled for 12:30 p.m. Tuesday to allow the community to join together in prayers for peace, healing, and loved ones that were still unaccounted for. The St. Charles chapel was fdled to capacity as members of the Carroll community joined together in prayer. An additional prayer service was held at 7 p.m. that evening. The Peer Educators hosted an open forum discussion to bring students together to share their thoughts and feelings on the tragedies. Rosie Walsh, director of the student develop ment center; Terry Derden, executive director of peer educators; Shawn Dailey, A.S.C.C. presi dent; and Mary Ellen Earphardt, student coun selor, spoke to the 60 people in attendance. Many shared their concerns regarding the effects of the tragedies and the importance of allowing grief and sharing feelings with others. Mary Ellen Earnhardt stressed the availability of the many resources on campus: counselors, peer educators, kirchen ministers, resident assis tants and many others. The audience also shared their thoughts and responses to the tragedy. \We need to come together as Carroll stu dents and Americans,\ said R.T. Duke. Christine Perrier shared her reflection, \Justice is not equal to revenge.\ Campus president Thomas Trebon shared his thoughts and words of encouragement with the campus. Prayer and message books were available for students to sign in the Cube, which will be used to send thoughts to families and loved ones of those affected by the tragedy in New York City and Washington, D.C. All Carroll athletic events were canceled through Sunday, September 16. An additional prayer service was held on the afternoon of Friday, September 14 in the Cube in conjunction with the National Day of Prayer and Mourning. All masses of the weekend were offered for peace and justice. The counseling staff will also be available September 25 and October 2 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. in Guadalupe Lounge in order to discuss the aftermath of the terrorist attacks with stu dents, faculty, and staff.
