June 2012 Weddings

Virginia Tech

I'm trying to keep up to date with all the information they're releasing. I heard that a police officer and one other has been killed. I hope the apprehend the suspects soon!

Prayers to everyone there as well as friends and families of the victims!

    The Collegiate Times seems to have the most info...they're pushing a lot of Tweets right now:
    http://twitter.com/CollegiateTimes

    The official VT Twitter feed has lots of info, too:
    http://twitter.com/vtnews

    FWIW, UVa suggested that everyone stay off the VT website so students, staff, and familly members can have access.  Their site has been slammed, probably by all the people googling for info. 

    Twitter can handle the traffic just fine.
  • This is just so sad. :(

    NBC twitter is reporting that the gunman is dead.  They think the 2nd person they found was the shooter.
  • I couldn't believe this when I heard it.  So devistating. 
  • I'm out of the loop, I hadn't heard about this until now! But this is so sad! It's my grandfather's Alma mater, and I know if he were alive he would be so upset! My thoughts go out to everyone affected!!

  • WTF?!  I saw this post and immediately went over to CNN and can't find anything on it.  Thank you Bernice for posting that link.  I can't believe how stuff like this keeps happening.  What is wrong with people?
  • Welcome Julie. Its getting pretty bad up there. Its like the entire town has gone crazy. My heart goes out the family of the police office who was shot, and if it was an innocent bystander who was also shot, for his family.

  • I have many former students there adn my daughter's BFF is there. Hugs and prayers continue to go to the VT family and the entire community. I was most relieved when all my former students had checked in on FB and my DD BFF check in as well ...
