George Bush Library helps remember 9/11 Museum exhibit features items, artifacts from 2001 terror attack By Brad Canon & Jacob Svetz @BradCanon1 & @JaSvetz

A memorial honoring those who died on 9/11 will be in place at the George Bush Presidential Library until Sept. 29. The display, called “Responding to Sept. 11,” includes items like a World Trade Tower beam, the bullhorn President George W. Bush used at Ground Zero and notes from his impromptu speech. Jac Morse, a worker at the George Bush Library, said people have come from not only around Bryan-College Station, but also from all over the world to the museum to see the 9/11 display. “People come from all over, people from around town, but also out of state, we saw a couple from Canada, we have

a group in from Ireland today and other states like California,” Morse said. The museum also owns a piece of a steel beam from the original World Trade Center, which they keep at the memorial for guests to see every year at this time, Morse said. “It is actually a part of the original tower, which belongs to the museum and they bring it out every year at 9/11,” Morse said. Joe Coughran, a worker at the museum and a retired Air Force colonel, said it is important for people to see the exhibit because many younger people are unaware of the significance of 9/11. “The most important reason to come to the memorial is to learn about it, a lot of kids at school don’t have the foggiest idea what 9/11 is,” Coughran said. Many people don’t really know what 9/11 is and the most important reason for anyone to come to the exhibit is for ev-
eryone to learn about the event, Coughran said. “To me it is something like Pearl Harbor, which was before my time, but I still relate to it because I have been there and I’ve see the vigil and realize the sacrifice made at Pearl Harbor versus the sacrifice made at 9/11,” Coughran said. “You can’t just think about the people killed in the buildings — but the police and fireman who were killed too.” Stephanie Mazurkiewicz, an Austin native, came with her friends, who were from out of the country, to see the memorial and said she believes it is important for everyone to come to the memorial because it is something no one should ever forget. “In order for the world and life to go on people need to know what happened, so it does not happen again, how it impacted other, how it brought the United MEMORIAL ON PG. 3

Family remembers Aggie killed in 9/11 terrorist attack Jimmy Storey, Class of 1965, among 3 former students who died in strike FILE
By Chris Martin @martin19340 On the morning of Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, an Aggie was caught in the largest terrorist attack in the history of the United States. Jimmy Storey, Class of 1965 and former senior vice president for Marsh & McLennan, traveled from Houston to New York City on a business trip on that fateful day. Storey was on the 99th floor at the North World Trade Center to visit company offices that Tuesday morning. Storey was one of 2,977 people who lost their lives during the 9/11 attacks. Cynthia Morrow, Class of 1988 and Storey’s daughter, said if he made it to the business meeting a little later, he may have missed the attack by the Boeing 767. “He was having a meeting in the World Trade Center at that time,” Morrow said. “Some of the people who made the meeting on time were in there and those who got to the meeting [late] were not.” Morrow said he kept family very close and was heavily invested in his grandchildren. “He was a hard worker — he worked six days a week for as long as I can remember,” Morrow said. “He also liked to read and travel — he always had a hard time relaxing. He loved family, he really enjoyed grandkids. He had four when he passed away and now five and he was really enjoying that part.” Morrow said she wished her father could have been more involved in the lives of his grandchildren as they grew up. “He would have been the person at every volleyball game or dance,” Morrow said. “He STOREY ON PG. 3

Aggie defense takes another step forward John Chavis’ defense looked like an elite unit for the first three quarters of the A&M’s season-opening win over UCLA, but it struggled in the fourth quarter and allowed the Bruins to get back into the game. The Aggie defense was about as effective as possible for all four quarters against Prairie View A&M on Saturday, though, pitching a shutout and allowing only 205 total yards of offense. “Shutouts are hard to come by,” junior defensive back Nick Harvey, who recorded a 73-yard punt return touchdown, said after the game. “Getting the shutout — it doesn’t happen every day.

A&M volleyball sweeps Borderland Invitational By Angel Franco @angelmadison_ The No. 16 Texas A&M volleyball team added three wins to its resume after a trip to the Texas borderland. The Aggies swept Arizona, New Mexico State and UT-El Paso in the Borderland Invitational. The maroon and white faced Arizona in the first match of the weekend Friday on the NMSU campus. A&M defeated the Wildcats in three straight sets, 25-16, 26-24, 25-20. Junior setter Stephanie Aiple directed the A&M offense to a .298 hitting efficiency. Three Aggies had eight kills each in the match. Later that evening, A&M played NMSU in the night cap. A&M tallied its second sweep of the day after
taking down their fellow Aggies in three straight sets. A&M was down 6-1 in the first set before tying the match at six apiece after five unanswered points. Late in the first set, the Aggies mounted a comeback to take the first set, 25-20. Despite coming within three points of tying the second set, NMSU was unable to survive the A&M attack, losing the second set, 25-16. In the third and what was ultimately the final set of the game, A&M trailed NMSU 14-9, however the A&M offense went on an 11-2 run after junior opposite hitter Ashlie Reasor recorded back-to-to back kills, leading to a 2519 A&M win.

on the ground, the Aggies allowed only 32 yards on 28 carries, good for an anemic 1.1 yards per carry. The Panthers’ offense, which is predicated mostly on quick passes and quarterback read plays, neutralized the A&M pass rush for the most part, but it didn’t matter, as the Aggies recorded their

Knight showed flashes of brilliance in last week’s 31-24 win over UCLA — most notably his game-winning touchdown on 4th-and-goal — but he also made some mistakes and missed some throws. He was much better Saturday, though. He looked much more comfortable in the pocket, he repeatedly fired tight spirals all around the yard to open receivers and he still displayed his athleticism and mobility on multiple occasions.

first home shutout since 2004. Even as the score became more lopsided late in the second half, the Aggies maintained their intensity defensively when it would have been easy to let up and allow a few garbage-time scores.
A week after showing promise against UCLA with 65 rushing yards and a touchdown, the Oklahoma transfer looked even better against PVAMU. Not only did Ford average 7.8 yards per carry and score two touchdowns, but he also contributed in the receiving department. He looked extremely quick and elusive in the
Noil may have only caught four passes for 25 yards, but he still managed to make a noticeable impact. Knight targeted him several times throughout the contest and there were a few times where Noil almost came up with big catches, but his timing will likely get better with more game reps and he could start making those catches moving forward.
As encouraging as Saturday’s results were for the Aggies, the quality of opponent must be taken into account. While the Panthers seemed to have a creative offense that can dominate FCS opponents, they are not a particularly talented team by SEC standards. It was nice that the Aggies were able to hone their skills, work on some things and build their
In all, Knight accounted for a career-high 422 total yards — 344 through the air and 78 on the ground — and five touchdowns. Even though he wasn’t perfect, he looked much better than he did in his A&M debut and it was a good tune-up performance heading into next weekend’s matchup against Auburn. The Tigers boast a talented defense that held DeShaun Watson and No. 2 Clemson’s high-flying offense to only 399 total yards and 19 points.
first quarter when he took a swing pass from Knight and sprinted down the sideline for a big 40-yard gain. Ford only carried the ball eight times because of the margin of victory, but his play the first two games suggests that he might be able to shoulder the load as the year progresses into the thick of the SEC schedule.
If Noil does emerges as the same caliber of playmaker that he was during his freshman season, it would give Knight yet another weapon for him to play with. Offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone would have tremendous versatility in getting him involved in the offense, whether it be vertical passes, quick screens or jet sweeps.
confidence, but Auburn will be a much better test. If they can go into the hostile environment of Jordan-Hare Stadium and come out with a win against the Tigers, then it will be time to take the Aggies seriously.

Saturday, the Aggies traveled 46 miles south to El Paso for the second and final day of the Borderland Invitational. The Aggies defeated the Miners in UTEP’s first home match of the season. A&M won the first set of the match 25-16. The second set resulted in a close competition between the Aggies and the Miners. UTEP and A&M were tied at 23 apiece before senior middle blocker Jazzmin Barbers got a block that gave the Aggies the set point. On the ensuing play, the Miners were able to extend the match for another point. However, the Aggies took the took the set 26-24, with a 2-0 lead in the match. In the final set of the weekend, the Aggies jumped to a 15-8 lead over the Miners and never trailed in the set. A&M took the 25-15 win over the Miners to close out tournament play and improving their overall record to 6-3. Texas A&M head coach Laurie Corbelli
said she was happy with her team’s performance throughout the weekend. She also said the week ahead of the A&M squad presents a huge challenge for the Aggies, who will play two teams — No. 3 Texas and No. 2 Wisconsin — who are ranked in the top three. “They are definitely two of the best teams in the country,” Corbelli told 12thman.com. “How exciting. I love playing those kinds of matches. I think it’s the way you get better. It’s the way you learn to compete harder. It’s figuring out how to win. It’s going to be a lot of fun. I’m sure the atmosphere for both matches is just going to be one of the best. I think they are marquee matches for the week for the country and women’s collegiate volleyball, so it’s going to be fun to be a part of that.” The Aggies will be back in action Wednesday as they travel to Austin to face longtime rival Texas in a midweek matchup.

y family had just moved to the United States the previous year and we were living just north of Atlanta at the time. I remember watching the coverage on TV and later that night by the glow of the night light in my bedroom writing in my journal — which I still have because of that entry — about how “planes crashed into tall ‘billdings.’ Many people died.”
Katy Stapp @KatyxStapp
A
t seven years old, you don’t pay much attention to the news. But I started listening when I heard the shaky voice of a reporter saying “a plane crashed” on the radio. I asked my mom, “Was anyone hurt?” but she didn’t know how to answer me. Later that morning at school, a second plane. I’ll never be able to explain how I felt, but I remember wanting to find my little sister in the classroom next door, wanting to hug my parents. My teachers sat us all in a circle for a moment of silence that turned into an hour of silence because nobody — teachers or students — could speak.

I
was seven years old and living in Tampa, Florida. I remember I had just gotten dropped off at school. My parents both came to pick me and my brother up because they didn’t want us to hear things at school that were possibly not true about what was going on. My dad worked in Downtown Tampa and he came home because they shut down his building. Living through 9/11 has really made me more aware of what happens on a national level since.
1. Following the attacks, fans at the Oklahoma State versus A&M football game wore red, white and blue to the game in honor of the victims who were killed. 2. The front cover of The Battalion on Sept. 12 featured an AP article about the terror attacks and an image from the wire. 3. Hundreds of students gathered in the Flag Room of the MSC to watch news coverage as the day’s events unfolded.

was in 4K at school. I don’t remember many details from that day, just that our teacher explained to us what had happened. When I got home from school I watched the news coverage for the rest of the day with my parents and my two brothers.

That I was smart enough, that I could do it, that I could work hard and keep trying. He was that kind of person I always viewed no matter what happened,
if I failed or succeed, he was always there for me.” Storey tried to stay involved with A&M over the years, but was geographically separated for 22 years when he lived in Washington while working for Aetna Insurance. Morrow said he donated a lot to the Century Club when in Washington and was more involved when he and his family moved to Houston. Two other Aggies died in the attacks, as well. Lt. Col. Jerry Don Dickerson, Class of 1992 and assistant executive officer for the army deputy chief of staff for Programs, died when American Airlines flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. Lee Adler, Class of 1984 and systems programmer at Cantor Fitzgerald, died in the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Family members could not be reached.

y parents hadn’t shuttled me off to school just yet. Something terrible had happened on the news in the living room, which had paused both of my parents entirely. My mom was braiding my sister’s hair, my dad took a seat nearby on the couch, elbows on his knees as he leaned forward to soak up the troubling information. In 15 minutes, school had been canceled. At six years old, there was no way for me to accurately absorb the weight of a national tragedy. I do, however, remember my mom turning to my father, saying, “This is going to change the world forever.” Brad Canon — THE BATTALION

I didn’t fully understand what was going on, I just knew that what was happening was terrible.

Sam Spivey, head of public relations and communications of YAF, said keeping the memory of the 9/11 terrorist attacks alive is important. “It is easy to forget the cultural impact that day had,” Spivey said. “The day before and the day after 9/11 were incredibly different.”
