Nearly 3,000 memorial flags were displayed along Martin's Way in honor of the victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. In addition, the Hamilton community observed a moment of silence at noon and gathered at 4 pm outside the Dunham entrance of Commons for a ceremony in memory of the victims.
The September 11th Scholarship Fund at Hamilton College was established in 2001 by a lead gift from Hamilton Trustee Stephen I. Sadove, Class of 1973, along with hundreds of gifts from alumni, parents and friends, to honor the memory of Sylvia San Pio Resta, Class of 1995, Arthur J. Jones III, Class of 1986, and Adam J. Lewis, Class of 1987 — Hamilton alumni who tragically lost their lives during the terrorist attacks on America. The scholarship is awarded based on financial need in the following order of preference: first, to students who are direct descendants of those alumni listed above; second, to students who are direct descendants of any other victim of the September 11 attacks; third, to students who are the direct descendants of victims of future national calamities; fourth, to students who have lost a parent for any reason.
