Videos from MIT relating
to September 11 events

 

 

Following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, MIT immediately began a dialogue -- via gatherings, discussions, email and the web -- to reach out to its community of 20,000 students, faculty and staff, who come from more than 100 nations and include all the world's major religions. The videos below record some of these events as the MIT community continues to reflect on and analyze the attacks and their repercussions.
