MCC’s September 11 commemoration ceremony marking the 21st anniversary of the terror attacks drew nearly 75 students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members to the Brighton Campus to pay tribute to 9/11 victims and first responders. Jessica L. Brown ’02 and Daniel Chupe-O’Hanlon ’02, whose vision led to the creation of the September 11th Remembrance Walk monument on the Brighton Campus in 2002, were among the attendees.

WHEC-TV, Spectrum News 1 and WXXI News (AM 1370) covered the event. They interviewed Paula Barlow '22, MCC Student Government Association president, a paralegal student and a parent of five sons, two of whom are reservists and a third serving in the Marine Corps; MCC Acting Provost and Vice President of Academic and Student Services Dr. Kim McKinsey-Mabry ’95; Eric Wheeler, assistant director of MCC Veteran Services and MCC alumnus; and Mark Maddalina, who served as the lead designer of the monument and has returned to the campus annually to speak and mark the 9/11 anniversary.
