    I got word from my UVA Wise friend last night that the friend my Tech friend was waiting word on passed away. She was shot and didn't make it. Last night my fiance and I just held each other and cried. My fiance is about to start college next semester and is scared to death, especially since Tech is only a 3-4 hour drive from here. It's hit very close to home. None of our friends were injured, but friends of our friends were, and it feels just as bad.

    Those affected by this are in my heart and in my thoughts. I think what everyone needs right now is a hug. :grouphug:

    I am a junior at Virginia Tech, and yesterday was quite possibly the worst day of my life. I was not on campus when this happened, but unfortunately I had friends of friends that didn't make it out. Thanks for everyone's replies and thoughts, it means a lot at a time like this.

    I just heard about this as we were waiting at the airport on the way home... I cannot imagine what drives a person to do something like this, I just cannot wrap my mind around it... which is probably a good thing. My thoughts and prayers are definitely with those who's lives have been effected by this tragedy (who, Fred Phelps is already promising to harrass, someone seriously needs to hogtie and gag that sadist).

    I wonder who this guy(the shooter) was? Nothing has been said, but I do wonder.

    they released his name and some info. Last night on CNN they interviewed his room mates and some old teachers and he was EXTREMELY troubled. His essays were filled with stories of murder and anger. A teacher claimed she tutored him one on one to keep him from other students and reported his behavior to numerous people.
