As schools around the country learn about 9/11, one Central Illinois High school is having students ask local residents who experienced the events themselves. The collection of interviews has been produced as a podcast, "800 Miles from Ground Zero: 9/11's Impact on Central Illinois". 

Students from the College of Media at the University of Illinois researched the men commemorated in this exhibit.  In this video, they talk about the stories they didn't get.

This new summit aims to get high school students involved in their local elections.
