Bryn Mawr College professor Clark McCauley writes that we were unable to predict how far our overreaction to 9/11 would go.

Today’s average college student was between the ages of eight and 11 on Sept. 11, 2001. We were old enough to know there was a problem, to feel that something had been lost, to watch the events unfold on the news.

We should cherish our fleeting feelings of universal participation. The chances that we’ll have another uniting experience like Spring Fling are slim to none.

The most gratifying experiences I had in college involved jumping off metaphorical cliffs. They were terrifying but also immensely rewarding.

Not all enemies are Sue Sylvester or Darth Vader. Not all enemies are even people.

Maybe some day we'll tell our kids what terrorism was, not what it is.

I hope the unifying power of bin Laden's death will mark a new era for the nation’s political culture.
