AFTER THE NIGHT

In year since Paris attacks, SU has worked to create abroad security system By Sam Ogozalek staff writer

A

s the November 2015 Paris attacks were unfolding, Syracuse University Abroad personnel learned that some students traveling in the country independently had not filled out the mandatory travel forms that notify SU officials of their whereabouts in case of an emergency. Every SU student in Paris at the time of the attacks, including those without traveling without the mandatory forms, was eventually reached and confirmed safe by SU Abroad. But in the year following the November 2015 Paris attacks, SU Abroad has nonetheless made changes to

security polices to improve its communication with students. It's currently testing a new two-way international emergency notification system similar to the Orange Alert used on campus in Syracuse. The Paris attacks left 130 people dead, with hundreds of others injured. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the coordinated teams of gunmen and suicide bombers who targeted different areas of the city, including popular tourist destinations and soft-target public places.   Approximately 60 SU students were in the city when the attacks occurred, said Jennifer Horvath, manager for marketing and communications at SU Abroad. No SU students died nor were any injured. “We felt something was wrong. We got off the subway

(and) everything was dark. It was eerie,” recalled Christine Chung, a senior communications and rhetoric major, who was in Paris last November traveling with a group of friends from the SU Abroad London program. Margaret Himley, the associate provost of international education and engagement at SU Abroad, and Horvath remember the attacks well. They each noted that SU Abroad was able to quickly reach students who they knew were going to be in Paris on that Friday night through social media, texts and phone calls. Unsure of who was in the city traveling without independent travel forms, SU Abroad contacted every student in Europe — who amounted to roughly 800 individuals at see abroad page 4

Syracuse missed out on a prime opportunity to win back fans

eading by one score midway through the third quarter, North Carolina State started with the ball on its own 14-yard line. On first down, running back Matthew Dayes got pushed back for four yards.

down. While he was doing that, SU fans roared to life, cheering at a volume that all season had been reserved for third down. SU head coach Dino Babers said he had noticed Clemson fans raise

the noise level even on early downs and it was something he hoped Orange fans would do at home. “You could see that that crowd was educated, like they had been doing that for years, since birth,” Babers said. “And if we can get some of that going on in the Carrier Dome where we make it extremely difficult for those other offenses … I think that’s going to be a huge advantage.”

Syracuse (4-6, 2-4 Atlantic Coast) had a chance to get back to .500 on Saturday. But it also had a chance to win over fans in what was announced as a season-high in attendance. For the first half of the year, Syracuse’s attendance was on pace for an all-time low. The Carrier Dome gave Babers what he asked for on Saturday. Without a victory in the most win-

nable game left on the schedule, though, there’s no reason fans will want to create a more raucous environment in the Carrier Dome. SU didn’t hold up its end in a 35-20 loss to N.C. State (5-5, 2-4). Babers has always preached “belief without evidence”. When he was introduced, he talked about how his system really takes its
