Why not name the new pub in Wilson Commons after heroic alumni Jeremy Glick? Glick was on one of the doomed flights taken over by hijackers on Sept. 11, 2001. Media reports suggest that cell phone calls from the airplane indicate strongly that Glick and a few other passengers may have intentionally crashed the plane to prevent it from crashing into a target such as the White House or US Capitol Building.

The University of Rochester has produced men and women of significant achievement in nearly every field of endeavor one could imagine. Can there be any question that Jeremy Glick has taken his place among them?

Name the new pub after Jeremy Glick.

Interpreted by some as an anti-Israel and anti-Zionist series, Rubel emphasized that while the need to support a particular side passionately is understandable, it is crucial to be aware of what you are standing behind by exposing yourself to historical and present knowledge.
