NEW YORK — A project in New York City is ensuring the memories of 9/11 will live on and future generations will be able to fully understand the impact the day in history had on society.

UNCG professor Sheryl Oring has helped people in New York express how the attacks affected them, and is calling on typists to record their memories.

“You get a real sense of how people feel and react, and how they still feel 10 years later,” said participant Ken Tersten.

Tersten said the memories of 9/11 are fading and they are not as crisp as they once were. However, projects like Oring's are making it possible for future generations to understand the impact.

“But I've also warned all the typists don't be surprised if the people sitting down start to cry or if you start to cry because this is going to be a really intense experience,” said Oring.

It is those emotions that Oring hopes to bring back to her students and North Carolina.
