September 11, 2006

At 12:30 p.m., on September 11th, the Associated Students of Cerro Coso (ASCC) hosted a 9/11 Memorial Ceremony around the College flag pole. Ted Higle ASCC President presented Dr. Mary Retterer, Interim President of Cerro Coso with a new flag purchased by the ASCC. Cerro Coso staffer Rudy Solidarious raised the new flag with assistance from Burroughs graduate, Air Force Tech Sergeant Patrick Connelly. Connelly recently returned home from Germany and two deployments to Iraq.
