College Students Unaware Of 9/11 Anniversary [VIDEO]

Dozens of students at George Washington University were unaware of the anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in recent interviews, while they were able to name celebrities involved in the nude photo scandal last week.

Young America’s Foundation spokeswoman Ashley Pratte went to George Washington University last week, and asked 30 students a series of questions about the Sept. 11 anniversary, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, and the recent theft of nude photos of various celebrities.

Twenty-nine of the students were able to name at least one of the celebrities involved. But just six of the students were able to identify this week as the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, and only four successfully named of one of the American journalists beheaded by ISIS.

In the video of the interviews, one of the students was completely unaware that Steven Sotloff and James Foley were beheaded, and seemed very taken aback by the news.

“So I’m sure that you’ve heard of ISIS,” Pratte said. “Do you know what the president’s strategy is for dealing with that?”

“I don’t,” the student responded. “I haven’t heard of ISIS.”

After she identifies the group, he recalls that he actually has heard of them. “Did you know that they beheaded two American journalists?” Pratt continued.

“What?” he said before covering his mouth with his hand and removing his hat.
