Reflecting on 9/11 at UNH

On the 24th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the University of New Hampshire community pauses to remember the members of the UNH family who were lost that day, including four alumni — one of whom was also a longtime faculty member.

Judd Cavalier ’98, Jennifer Fialko ’94, Robert G. LeBlanc ’59 and Timothy C. Stout ’83 all lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. Cavalier, Fialko and Stout were all in one of the two towers at the World Trade Center, while LeBlanc, who was a geography professor at UNH for 36 years, was aboard United Airlines Flight 175.
