I did notice this year that not much media stuff was covered. At our campus, there was only 1 event (moment of silence by the 'spiritual center') and that was it. THere was complaints in the newspaper today about people thinking not enough was scheduled.
I guess the whole New Orleans thing reall bumped attention.
