Are you less likely to go to the mall because of the recent
terrorist threat? Scott Champagne Graduate student,
business “Absolutely not. I will never change my
lifestyle or what I’m doing (because of something) like that.
I didn’t stop traveling when 9/11 happened. I’m not
going to live in fear or change what I do based on this sort of
nonsense.” Aleida Osorio Third-year,
psychology “If something is going to happen to me,
it’s going to happen to me regardless of the bomb threat. I
don’t think a bomb threat would stop me from going to the
mall.” Agustin Lopez Third-year, business
economics “I’m going to avoid the Federal
Building. … I’m not even going to go the Westside Pavilion.
It’s not worth it, in case something happens.”
