Following Sept. 11, 2001, University President Emeritus Fr. Edward "Monk" Malloy said he had to see the site of the terrorist attacks for himself and visited Ground Zero about a month after the event.
Ten years later, he still remembers the "acrid" smell of the site and how it looked -- like images of hell in Medieval paintings.
Listen to Malloy talk about his experience, and how it relates back to Notre Dame.
