Ceremony to honor deceased students

Fraternity, bands to commemorate students tonight

A ceremony to honor the Purdue students who died during this semester will take place at 9:30 tonight at the Purdue Bell Tower.

The Golden Taps ceremony, which has been held since the mid-1990's, honors the students with memorial cards.

The Purdue Bands and the Tau Beta Sigma band fraternity sponsor the event. Drummers and buglers will go from the Elliott Hall of Music to the base of the bell tower. The bell will toll once for each student being honored and, after a moment of silence, Echo Taps will be played.

The students to be commemorated include: Matthew Troy Cahill, a senior in the Schools of Engineering; Jacob Charles Cushman, a sophomore in the School of Liberal Arts; Kristine Lynn Noonan, a senior in the School of Management; Travis Randall Simpson, a sophomore in the School of Technology; Matthew Stachowiak, a sophomore in the School of Liberal Arts; Loren Whisler, a non-degree student in the School of Technology; and Laura Marie Williams, a junior in the School of Consumer and Family Sciences.
