No oneat SU could have missed the coverage of the fateful day when the World TradeCenter towers weredestroyedbycommercial airliners.Asstudents returnedSept. 11 wasstill fresh in theirminds. It took weeks for the dust to settle in New York, and weeks for SU students to fully grasp the impact of the events that occurred during summer break.Students returned to SUandfound supportand guidance inthearmsof thecampus.LecturesonIslamandterrorismopenedtheeyes ofstudents, while the video coverageinmid-September had forcedmany students' eyesto fill with tears. As October began to go by The Spectatorand the University slowly began to turn away from the tragedy. Articles on theinstallation ofmetal detectors at the bookstore,and the roadblocks in front of Xavier roared equal toquestionsof whether America shouldbeatwar.Hategraffiti was found in residencehalls in late October. The message was not against Islam,but rather against National ComingOutlDay. As November began, a rash of bike thefts plagued campus and the surrounding area,and as Seattle votedona new mayor. The sports page noticedthepotential ofSU's swim team,and students volunteered togive Letters to the editor apark afacelift. Yet,theopinion pagestill waslit with students therapeu- ticallyusing the newspaper todeal withthe waron terrorism.

Thetennis teamwascut aroundValentine'sDay,and leftplayersa little heartbroken. InMarch springbreak consumed the thoughts of most students. InAprilIRS woesandCatholic sexscandals wereonthelipsofstudents and on thepages of TheSpectator. Yet now in May, with Corazon Aquino's visit and many students preparing for their graduation thoughts have turned toreflection. What have welearned in thepast year that will stay with us for the rest of our lives? Safety andfamily willneverbe taken forgrantedagain. With Sept. 11, and Aquino's terrible loss of her husband, we learned that the most important thinginthe worldis family, and that we arenever completely safe. Yet, we alsohave learned thatthere is life after tragedy.
