Together we stand ... United we will be How our campus and community show their American pride

By Julie Ferguson Online features editor

Driving down Lincoln Avenue, the vast array of American flags line the street. Everywhere you look on campus and in Charleston there is red, white and blue. The huge flag borrowed from Premier Boys’ State hangs high over Old Main. Cars are decorated and flags are dis- played on campus buildings. The dorms, houses off- campus and Greek Court all display various forms of the American flag. This sudden burst of American pride makes it hard to forget about the tragedy which occurred and even harder to forget how we took our freedom for granted. People themselves are wearing flag lapel pins and dressing in patriotic colors. Chants of ‘USA’ have even become a normalcy. Bill Riebe, Charleston city manager said the flags along Lincoln and the flags along the square were done in conjunc- tion with the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America. “They did not have time to put the flags up so we had the city crews do it.” Riebe said. “We have had about 15 of these flags stolen and that is not normal.” He said, “The mayor has written letters to offer volunteer efforts to help out in New York; we have made these gestures like every community has.” “Various civic groups and a lot of campus groups, volunteer Simmons said, “People are forgetting about economics, groups and churches have really come together.” said RIebe. race, religions and looking at the world being humans in We sometimes forget the freedoms and luxuries we have Cindy Titus, director of Charleston Chamber of America.” He said you see the flag everywhere from elemen- “and now that this has happened we can’t take it for granted.

Flyovers are often done during championship games, and almost always during times of war or other times of national tribute. Cocked and ready to fire There will be no flyovers this weekend. The Federal Aviation Administration issued a blanket restriction on airspace near “major” sporting events this weekend in response to a flood of requests by both professional and college sports organizations to aircraft from flying by their games. Initially, the University of Michigan asked for the restriction over its football stadium, which seats over 107,000, the most in college football. The University of Wisconsin also made such a request, and pretty soon the FAA just threw its hand up and said no plane could go within three miles of any “major” sporting event, although “major” wasn’t defined. Sports officials believe that sports fans will be more open to attending games if they don’t have to worry about the occasional 747 that cruises by.
