The September 11 memorial on Brighton Campus was erected in 2002 as a result of early efforts of several MCC student leaders, who quickly drew the support of other students, administrators and local businesses. The effort to design, build and dedicate a place of remembrance was driven by a desire to create a distinct place for reflection and healing within the community. MCC students annually organize this remembrance ceremony.
