10 years after 9/11

The architects for “Empty Sky” the 9/11 memorial at Liberty State Park in New Jersey say they hadn’t planned the poignant sunlight effect.

Editor-in-chief

A decade after terrorists took nearly 3,000 lives in attacks on New York, Washington D.C. and in the sky over rural Pennsylvania, a memorial now stands in the empty footprints of the two towers that have come to symbolize the national tragedy.

Designed by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker, the National September 11 Memorial features two

twin reflecting pools fed by waterfalls that cascade down from the top of the 30-foot wall that lines the perimeter.

Each pool is surrounded by trees, which, through their changing leaves, are meant to represent the passage of time.

The six names of those killed in The World Trade Center bombing of 1993 join those of the victims who died in the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and aboard United Flight 93 and are inscribed on two bronze parapets that line the memorial.

The names are arranged by affiliation. Members of the same

flight crew or employees of the same company are grouped together. Family members and friends of the victims were able to make requests that certain names be placed together to represent family relationships and friendships.

The memorial and museum will be dedicated on Sunday, the 10th anniversary of the attacks. The memorial will open to the public on Monday.

Cost of war on terror not easily measured A LEX M ACON

Senior Staff Writer On Sept. 20, 2001, nine days after the 9/11 attacks carried out by members of terrorist group al-Qaida, then-President George W. Bush addressed a special joint session of Congress.

“Our war on terror begins with al-Qaeda, but it does not end there,” Bush said. “It will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found, stopped and defeated.”

Ten years, two invasions, trillions of dollars and thousands of lost lives later, the United States’ war on terror is ongoing.

In October 2001, polls indicated that about 88 percent of Americans supported military action in Afghanistan.

A CNN poll conducted earlier this year reported that only 35 percent of Americans continue to support military operations in Afghanistan, and 63 percent opposed it.

James Meernik, graduate school dean and political science professor, said in the last few years Americans have realized the high cost of these wars.

Faces of heroism: Inside the life of a first responder NICOLE BALDERAS Senior Staff Writer

W hile many Americans watched the events of Sept. 11 unfold in disbelief, others felt a call to duty, some instinctively.

First responders from all over the country, including North Texas, reported to ground zero in official and unofficial capacities to provide aid in any way possible.

“It was the second day on the 12th of September when I got the call to activation,” said Anita Foster, public information officer for the American Red CrossDallas Area Chapter. “I’ll never forget that one of our people in New York called and said, ‘Anita, we need you at ground zero.’”

Foster has worked with the Red Cross for 15 years, but said nothing could have prepared

her for what she witnessed upon arriving in New York. Because all flights to La Guardia Airport were cancelled, Foster flew into Philadelphia and from there took a train to Grand Central Station.

“You just have no idea what you’re walking into,” Foster said.

“I remember there was a National Guard member from the military and he said, ‘You’re about to

witness war.’ I turned the corner and stopped dead in my tracks.

There was a hotel on fire; ground zero was on fire. I felt like I was in Dante’s Inferno.”

Because of flight delays, Foster didn’t arrive at ground zero until the 14th of September, but she recalls an atmosphere that was still in utter chaos.

After surveying the extent of the damage around her, Foster prayed that if anyone were alive and suffering, they would experience a quick end to their pain.

“I knew right at that moment that would be the burial ground for many people, and it was,” she said.

The bulk of Foster’s day-to-day duties consisted of working on a pier that had been taken over by families who were missing loved ones.

“They commandeered it and turned it into a grieving center for people who couldn’t find their loved ones,” she said.

She worked with civilians to find information on friends and family members who had not yet been found.

She reca lls seeing the comments written by loved ones go from “I miss you” to “goodbye” as the reality of the attacks began to sink in.

More than 1,000 bodies were never found in the debris. Foster said she mourns for those families the most.

“People ask me a lot if I was glad to have gone, and I don’t really know how to answer that,”

Ordinance to restrict sex offenders of children RON JOHNSON

“In Denton, we have no ordinance restricting where sex offenders may live.”

Contributing Writer The Denton Police Department proposed an ordinance banning sex offenders of children from living near child-populated areas even after their parole period is over. If the Denton City Council passes the ordinance, sex offenders of children will be banned from living within 1,500 feet of “child safety zones” like parks, recreational centers, arcades and day care centers.

Lenn Carter, captain of the Denton Police Department, gave the city council a 10-minute presentation during its meeting Tuesday on why the city needs the ordinance and explained how current laws allow certain sex offenders of children to be near places children occupy.

Even though current laws require convicted sex offenders to keep their distance from child-populated places while on parole or probation, child sex offenders are free to live around these areas once their parole or

—Lenn Carter Captain of the Denton Police Department

probation is over.

“In Denton, we have no ordinance restricting where sex offenders may live, so once they complete their parole, these offenders can live anywhere,” Ca rter sa id. “That means parks, schools and recreational centers or anywhere children are.”

According to the proposed ordinance, a $500 fine would be issued to violators. Violators would be given a 30-day grace period to relocate or another $500 fine would be issued every day after the period. An annually reviewed map of the child safety zones will also be available at the Denton Police

Department if the ordinance is passed.

Kev i n Roden, cou nci l member of District One, said more information is needed on why sex offenders are migrating to Denton and where they would go if the ordinance were to be adopted.

“Where are they heading?”

Roden asked. “Are we creating other problems for other cities because of this?”

Ninety-seven sex offenders were registered to be living in Denton during 2007. Now, 138 registered sex offenders live in Denton, Carter said, and the Denton Police Department ex pects more to reg ister

without legal regulation.

Although the proposed ordinance will outlaw the 121 sex offenders of children from living in these child safety zones, the 17 sex offenders of adults and sex offenders who were 17 at the time of their offense will still be allowed to take residence in the zones if the ordinance is adopted.

Registered sex offenders of children living in these zones prior to the ordinance’s adoption will be allowed to keep their residence.

James King, council member of Large Place Six, said he is not against the goals of the ordinance but wants to know the probability of a registered sex offender harming children again.

“It hits along the idea that they have already paid their debt to society,” King said.

“It chases them to the grave; they’re ostracized.”

The council will decide on the adoption of the ordinance Sept. 20.

Chapel welcomes students on day of remembrance MELISSA S. M AYER Contributing Writer

The Goolsby Chapel wasn’t supposed to open until Sept. 29, 2001, but when three terrorist attacks were made on Sept.11, the chapel opened its doors early to grieving members of the UNT community.

Diana Forson, former director of Goolsby Chapel, remembers that Tuesday as a regular, sunny, jacketless day. She was tending to the chapel before it opened that morning, but as she walked outside toward Crumley Hall, she noticed no one was around.

“It seemed like the whole campus, like the volume had been turned off,” Forson said.

She continued to walk through the back door, down the empty hall, through quiet dining services and down the stairs to find everyone in the living room of Crumley Hall watching TV intently. As her eyes met the TV screen, she soon found out what had silenced the campus. Planes had hit both of the World Trade Center towers in New York.

“The shock of the whole thing,” Forson said before taking a long

The employees of Crumley Hall tried to return to work but accomplished nothing. The shock of the incident overwhelmed the campus and all of its residents who filled the halls, she said.

Tony Goolsby, Texas State representative for North Dallas, donated the chapel as a place for students find comfort and serenity, he said.

Several semiprivate alcoves surround the main chapel, where a number of chairs face the wall dressed with curtains. A skylight shines on the podium in front

while a calming blue light reflects through the eight stained-glass windows.

Goolsby, a 1961 UNT graduate, and his wife Toppy Goolsby, donated $400,000 to help build the round one-story non-denominational chapel in 2001. Local architect Bill Smith and Jay and Jay Construction also donated

their services and specialties.

The chapel is normally closed on weekends, but will welcome students once again this Sept. 11 from 3-8 p.m. to commemorate the 10-year anniversary.

Goolsby, who uses the chapel from time to time, had a vision of the building as a quiet place for everyone to find peace and comfort on campus grounds. He insisted the chapel be non-denominational so anyone could fulfill their spiritual needs.

“We welcome all people to this chapel so that everyone may find here a peaceful sanctuary,” Goolsby said.

Goolsby said he hopes more people find peace and comfort in the chapel and its landscape during this time of remembrance because that is its intention.

“It’s for whatever the person needs it to be,” said Mary Brockett, director of Goolsby Chapel.

In its Sept. 6 edition, the Daily incorrectly reported that Glad would have its bi-annual drag show in October. The show will be in November at an undetermined date.

The story also reported that the group had held fundraisers for Citizens of North Texas and Youth First Texas. Instead, it shou ld have read that their fundraisers have benefitted Health Services of North Texas and Youth First Texas of Collin County. We regret the errors.

UNT faces Houston in Apogee debut PAUL BOTTONI

Senior Staff Writer Since its first year in 1913, the UNT football team has been led by 16 coaches, earned 24 conference titles and retired four player’s jersey names.

The Mean Green will start its journey to build on that history in a new home when it hosts the Cougars in the debut of the $78 million Apogee Stadium at 6 p.m.

Saturday.

“We have to do ou r pa r t,” head coach Dan McCarney said.

“Getting off to a great start is so important because you don’t want 30,000 fans sitting on their hands because we aren’t doing our job as a football team.”

UN T st r ug g led i n it s 2011 season opening ga me, losing to Florida International 41-16.

The Golden Panthers led 28-0 in the first quarter and finished t he n ig ht w it h 401 ya rds on offense.

Sen ior center J.J. Joh nson suffered a w rist injur y in t he f irst qua rter aga inst FIU a nd is questionable for Saturday’s game. After the loss of Johnson, the offensive line was shuff led and consisted of three freshmen, though two were starters.

Excuses aside, McCarney said the offensive line must step up its play.

“When a running back [Lance Dunbar] that has a lot of talent [Lance Dunbar] only has around 50 yards rushing, we’re not doing a ver y good job of block ing,” McCarney said. “We can sugarcoat it any way we want to, but we have to do a better job at blocking – that includes receivers, tight ends, lead backs, offensive line; it’s everyone.”

After losing starting quarterback Case Keenum in the third game of the 2010 season, Houston went 5-7 and saw its streak of f ive consecut ive bowl ga mes snapped.

Keenum was granted a sixth year of eligibility in January by the NCAA. The Heisman hopeful made an impressive return last week against UCL A, the team he was injured playing against in 2010, t hrow ing t wo touchdowns and more than 300 yards in Houston’s 38-34 win.

“It’s going to be really important for us to slow him down,” McCa r ne y sa id. “You’re not going to shut him out. You think a nyone’s goi ng to shut t hat offense out? UCL A didn’t, and we won’t.”

Senior UNT defensive back D’Leon McCord said the answer to slowing down Keenum is in execution.

“The key is to read your assignments and do your job,” McCord said. “If we as a team do our jobs, we’ll be fine.”

The Mean Green is coming off a loss to Florida International. starting a season 0-2 for a second straight year. UNT is 55-23-2 alltime in home opening games, but has lost six of the last seven – the most recent came against Southern Methodist in 2006.

APOGEE (āp•uh•jē): the highest point; pinnacle.

Paul Bottoni

Senior Staff Writer Since November 2009, passerbys on Interstate Highway 35 could see the future of UNT football being built – as head coach Dan McCarney said – “piece by piece, brick by brick.”

After nearly two years of construction, UNT is prepared to launch its new $78 million flagship – Apogee Stadium. The 30,850-seat stadium was built across the highway from Fouts Field, the home of Mean Green football since 1952.

“There’s only one Division-I program, that I know of, that is opening a new stadium Saturday, and that’s us,” McCarney said. “We need our fans; we need our students; we need everyone. So hopefully we can really build a new tradition and a great homefield tradition when we open this stadium.”

Apogee will host its first home game when UNT faces the Houston Cougars at 6 p.m. Saturday.

“It’s a great situation for us,” senior defensive back D’Leon McCord said.

“Sometimes I can’t sleep at night because I’m so pumped about what’s going to happen out [at Apogee].”

Fans and students will discover several noticeable differences from Fouts and Apogee – such as the wingshaped stands in the north end zone and “Spiriki,” a bronze eagle’s head stature in the south end zone – but some features won’t be as easily noticed.

UNT athletic director Rick Villarreal said one of the main goals from Day 1 was to build a “green” stadium and a checklist of ideas was made of how the stadium could be environmentally friendly, including the use of non-toxic paints and the planting of new trees and plants.

Three wind turbines will be built to provide the stadium with energy, but Villarreal said solar energy is also a possibility.

“We’ve applied for a grant for possible photocells [to be built] on the east-side ticket stand,” Villarreal said.

The stadium has the opportunity to become the first LEED – Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – certified stadium in the world, Villarreal said.

“There’s a feeling of accomplishment that we now have a place for our university and for future generations that’s on par with everybody else,” Villarreal said.

Fouts Field Cost: About $1 million Opened: 1952 Bathrooms: 2 Concession Stands: 2 Team Store: 0

Apogee Stadium Cost: $78 million Opened: 2011 Bathrooms: 27 Concession Stands: 16 Team Store: 1

UNT Goes Apogreen As soon as it was decided that UNT would build a new football stadium, athletic director Rick Villarreal made it a priority for it to be a part of UNT’s eco-conscious efforts. Applications of Villarreal’s plan can be seen throughout the stadium, as Apogee will include non-toxic paints, new landscaping and wind turbines that are still being built.

Fans See All the Signs

Apogee’s Newest Tradition As part of a new tradition, the Mean Green players will rub the head of “Spiriki,” a bronze eagle located in front of Apogee’s jumbotron, as they enter the field. The former UNT fraternity known as the “Geezles,” a group committed to promoting school spirit, gave $100,000 to wildlife sculptor Kent Ulberg to design the statue in August. Used to guard the players as they enter, the eagle weighs 225 pounds and stands about 5 feet tall.

Adding the Final Touches Days before UNT opens a new era in Apogee Stadium on Saturday, construction on lettering on the stadium’s front side came together.

Reminding fans where they have come to watch the game, the lettering will found to the right of its main entrance.

Commuters heading south on Interstate Highway 35 can see highlights from the Mean Green’s recent game and updates on the state of the teams as they drive by one of Apogee’s new signs. Placed adjacent to the highway, it will include an LED display screen for Mean Green fans to watch. Like the lettering on the face of Apogee, the sign was one of the last additions to UNT football’s new home. Construction finished just this week. Whether it’s a Lance Dunbar touchdown run or an update on the team’s schedule, the sign will keep fans in the loop.

Bla ncas ta kes t he job day by day. He doesn’t think much about how long he’ll continue to bartend, but so far he doesn’t have any complaints.

“Honestly, it’s gone by really fast,” he said.

With regards to the war in Iraq, Meernik said the removal of Saddam Hussein was a good thing but was not ultimately worth the cost.

The war on terror has also caused some members of the international community to question U.S. military policy.

“Some of the language that came with the war on terror and the Abu Ghraib incident led to some damage to public opinion of the U.S.,” Meernik said.

In 2004, pictures showing U.S. abuse of prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq surfaced, causing an international furor.

In response to 9/11 and an indirect part of the war on terror, in October 2001, Congress passed the Patriot Act, which greatly reduced U.S. law enforcement restrictions on surveillance of individuals suspected of terrorism. The Patriot Act gave law enforcement increased ability to search individuals’ telephone and email records, as well as their medical and financial history. In 2011, President Obama signed a four-year extension of some of the Patriot Act’s provisions.

“The cost of war has been us giving up our civil liberties,” said Cindy Spoon, an international studies senior and antiwar activist.

Spoon said she opposed the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and was aghast at how the threat of terror had been used to restrict the freedoms of U.S. citizens.

In his speech at UNT on Wednesday, former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said the vast majority of U.S. troops would be withdrawn from Iraq by the end of the year. President Obama has outlined a plan to remove most U.S. troops from Afghanistan by 2014.

She remembers a day, while in New York, when a woman was walking by with her daughter.

“The little girl said, ‘Red Cross lady,’ and she gave me a hug,” Foster said through tears. “It was sweet and sincere from a child, and I instantly started crying.”

On the other side of ground zero was former firefighter/ EMT-C Leslie Palmer, who refers to the site as the “pile.”

Palmer, now the interim CEO for the North Texas region of the Red Cross, made up a team of eight firefighters specially trained for trench collapses, who drove from Rhode Island only 24 hours after the first plane crashed and reported to New York Fire Station #1010.

“I have spent a lot of time in New York City before, but it was not the New York City I knew,” Palmer said. “It was like a war movie set, but it was real.”

Being one of the first groups deployed from outside New York City made for an eerie experi-

ence, Palmer said.

“There were these symbolic things like fire engines that had been parked, and empty shoes of the fire fighters,” Palmer said.

“No one was coming back to drive the fire engine, and no one was ever going to fill those shoes again.”

The crew did everything from pulling rubble off of the pile to taking fuel from stranded cars to supply the city’s generators because there was no power.

Palmer said she knew when she received the call going to New York would be a recovery mission, not a rescue mission.

“We weren’t finding whole bodies, we were finding body parts,” Palmer said. “But we knew those body parts were somebody – somebody’s brother, mother.

There was a sense of quiet that came over the crew – it wasn’t intended to be religious or ceremonial by any stretch of the imagination; it was out of respect for the families and loved ones

For mer Ma r i ne Pey ton Bredemeier said he doesn’t necessa ri ly v iew t he 10t h anniversary as a turning point for the country.

“I think we are still vulnerable,” sa id Bredemeier, a biology freshman. “A lot has changed in terms of security as a whole, and I think we are still recovering.”

A lt hough UNT students were in different places in t heir lives, some even in elementary school, many still think of where they were the

There is little agreement on the future of Iraq or Afghanistan after U.S. withdrawal.

With more than 100,000 U.S. troops still in Afghanistan, the cost of the U.S.’s war on terror continues to add up.

Chelsea Perez, a development and family studies junior, said her cousin is a Marine currently serving in Afghanistan.

“It’s scary, you know. It’s not something you want to think about on a daily basis,” Perez said.

“You just try to stay positive and hope he comes home safe.”

“Because of the economic problems and this enormous [U.S. budget] deficit, there’s kind of a weariness with war,” Meernik said.

More t ha n 6,000 U.S. servicemen have died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to the Washington Post. About 30,490 have been wounded. On Aug. 6, 31 American troops were killed in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan, the single deadliest incident since the war began.

In the 10 years since 9/11 the U.S. has spent about $2.5 trillion on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, according to a report

by Brown University’s Watson Institute for International Studies released in June. The report estimates that number could reach as high as $4 trillion by 2020, taking into account long-term obligations to wounded veterans and future war spending.

On June 7, 2010, more than eight and a half years after the invasion of Afghanistan, the War in Afghanistan became the longest war in U.S. history.

Meernik pointed out that there have been no major terrorist attacks on U.S. soil since 9/11.

“I think in Afghanistan, in terms of the war on terror, it’s been very successful,” Meernik said. “It demonstrates we’ve sincerely disrupted their capabilities.”

who were no longer with us. It was a great sense of humanity as far as I was concerned – it still moves me 10 years later.”

Witnessing the attacks was a surreal experience for many native New Yorkers. In particular, one teacher from West Village, Diana Burroughs, did what came naturally to her: she cooked.

“I basically galvanized my children and their friends and we baked cookies and made sandwiches,” Burroughs said. “We bought pounds and pounds of meat, formed an assembly line and stood at the barricade where they had blocked off the street.”

Burroughs recalls handing out food to truck drivers from all over the country who poured in at the end of the day.

“The most disturbing were the refrigerator trucks which were huge and were used to carry away dead bodies,” she said. “And the smell was not to be believed; one never forgets the smell of burning flesh.”

Though it was a bittersweet moment, Burroughs said there was a big sense of community formed through simple actions like these.

moment they learned of the attacks and the shock they felt.

“I still feel the same as the day it happened,” psychology senior Sarah Forsy th said.

“It was shocking. I feel like we were violated in a way.

Certainly caught off guard.”

UNT opens on the road I an Jacoby Intern

Entering the 2011-2012 season ranked No. 50, the UNT women’s golf team has some serious hype to live up to.

The Mean Green will try to continue climbing up the rankings this weekend at the “Mo”morial tournament in College Station.

With four of the nation’s top 25 teams competing, head coach Jeff Mitchell said the tournament is an opportunity for UNT to showcase its talent.

“When I got here, I thought it would take two or three years to get the program to this level,” Mitchell

CHASLYN CHRISMER

said. “Now that we’re here looking forward, I think we’re going to be pushing the top 25 within the next year or so.”

Chrismer broke out as an important contributor . Chrismer posted a stroke average of 76.63, the lowest by a UNT freshman in 15 years.

“This year, I’d like to threaten some of the bigger schools like Texas A&M and Texas,” Chrismer said. “Teams that weren’t scared of us in the past.”

Contributing to the effort are returning seniors Addison Long and Jacey Chun. Long, an All-Sun Belt pick last season, finished with eight Top 20 finishes last year. The South Korean transfer Chun made an immediate impact by finishing in the Top 10 of four of her first five tournamentsBelt recognition.

A lso returning is senior Kelsey Kipp, the current holder of the lowest stroke average of any player on the team with an average 74.78 for the 2010-2011 season.

“My goal for this year is to play some great rounds of golf and continue to learn from coach,” Kipp said. “There’s always room to improve.”

Bobby Lewis

Senior Staff Writer T he U N T women’s soccer tea m w i l l go into t his weekend’s pair of games riding a fourgame winning streak, which has given it some recognition from t he Nat iona l Soccer Coaches Aassociaton of America.

Fol low i ng w i ns over SM U and Houston last weekend, the NSCA A ranked UNT (4-0-1) 10th in its latest South Region rankings.

“It’s great because you look at our region and it’s basically all SEC teams, us and Denver,” head coach John Hedlund said. “It’s nice to see we’re up there with some of the big schools.”

To keep the momentum going, UNT will need strong showings when it hosts Sam Houston State at 7 p.m. Friday and in Waco against Baylor at 3 p.m. Sunday.

Sam Houston When UNT visited Sam Houston (2-3-0) last season, a drenched field covered in heavy rain was a huge intangible that favored the Bearkats.

Although Sam Houston came out on top with its lone goal 104 minutes into the game, the better team left the field that day with the loss, Hedlund said.

That’s a class Seminar on Violence Class: CJUS 4350, Seminar on Violence

Subject Matter: Serial homicide, street gangs, violent groups and cults Better known as: Serial Killers and Gangs Required Texts: “Serial Murderers and their Victims,” “Biker Gangs and Organized Crime,” “Gangs Across America and Their Symbols,” “Gangs, Graffiti and Violence”

Difficulty PABLO A RAUZ Staff Writer

T h is cla ss delves i nto t he twisted world of cult violence, f rom t he Ma nson fa mi ly a nd t he Jone stow n m a s s ac re to t he Dionysian cult of ancient Greece.

“Pa rticula rly we ta lk about serial homicide and quite a bit about the psychopatholog y of what makes a serial killer,” said Soraya Kaw ucha of t he criminal justice faculty and a retired police officer from the Orange Count y sher if f ’s depa r t ment.

“Some i nd iv idua l s may ju st use serial homicide to express

violence and others use gang or cult behavior to express it.”

Kawucha was born and raised i n L os A ngeles, where ga ng violence caught her interest. Her experience in the field led her to teach a class on the matter of excessive v iolence i n ou r society.

Violence in America is a continually evolving subject. Up-to-date research is constantly used in the field to better understand criminal violence of various types, Kawucha said. Because of this, the class will continue to maintain student intrigue and will never become static.

That’s especia l ly t r ue of t he newest business there, Denton Square Donuts, which forms its

The holes, which are sugar-powdered cubes, help fulfill the square theme.

Each doughnut has a different spin in addit ion to its shape. To top it off, they look and taste like nothing we’ve encountered before.

We’l l w a r n t he doug h nut purists out there that along with the shape, neither the f lavor nor the texture of these doughnuts conforms to classical doughnut mold. The dough is lighter and even flaky, but still dense enough to deliver the flavors promised by their quirky names.

The bacon maple doughnut is topped with pieces of bacon drizzled w ith maple sy rup. It sounds like an odd combination, but the saltiness of the bacon complemented the sweetness of the syrup.
