As part of their commitment to “Look Back, Act Forward,” Remembrance Scholars work in teams to envision and implement projects to promote thoughtful consideration of the tragedy of Pan Am 103 and to benefit the campus and community. These “Act Forward Projects” are created and driven by the Scholars, and draw upon each team’s talents and skills. The projects are intended to deepen the Scholars’ and the campus communities’ understanding of the Pan Am 103 tragedy through research, outreach, discourse, education, and creative engagement.
