Dear Members of the MIT Community,
I have been asked to forward some information regarding the memorial
banners that have been up in Lobby 10. They will be taken down
tomorrow morning at 11:30.
Forwarded:
>1. We thank the community for sharing their thoughts and emotions on
>the Sept 11th tragedy over these past two weeks. While we acknowledge
>that some people may still need a place for public conversation and
>grieving, the banners placed here in Lobby 10 were only temporary. A
>transition is being made to an online forum at Community Discussions:
>http://web.mit.edu/expressions

>
> > 2. These banners are being taken down by staff of the MIT Archives, in
> > conjunction with the student who initiated them. They will be taken to
> the
> > Archives and preserved there. The staff at the Archives can arrange to
> > have these displayed at future times should such requests be made.
> > 3. A photographic series has also been made to preserve the visual effect
> > for the future as well.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact Dean
