Pepperdine Honors the Victims of 9/11

Local residents and community leaders honored the memory of the nearly 3,000 people who died 10 years ago in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks by reading their names out loud on Sunday at Alumni Park. The reading lasted nearly four hours.

Scores of people came to the park to hear the reading and to see the Wave of Flags, a powerful display on Pepperdine's front lawn that features 2,977 flags, representing all the people who died in the 9/11 tragedy.
