As part of a symposium on “The Future of September 11” marking the fifth anniversary of the attacks, Gideon Yago moderated a student town hall. The panelists discussed their views on how September 11 has affected their lives and society in general, and become the defining moment for a generation. Panel members also responded to audience members' questions.

Co-sponsor World Trade Center Family Center provides evaluation of the ongoing mental health recovery needs and provides support services to people directly impacted by the September 11 terrorist attacks, including all those who lost family members and September 11 responders and their families.

The event was held in Monroe Lecture Center Theater at Hofstra University
