9/11 Message from Laura Cosby, Dean of Student Success Services

Today on the 19th anniversary of 9/11 we at Kalamazoo Valley would like to take a moment to remember those who answered the ultimate call of duty that day; firefighters, police, Port Authority of New York, EMTs and Paramedics. We also thank all first responders in our community who have continued to answer the call to serve. We take pride in providing programs and training for such very brave women and men. It takes special people to move towards danger rather than away. To provide aid to those hurt in a crisis, to battle the flames, and to shield the innocent. Our communities are safer because of you all.

Thank you.
