VT, 12 months on

#1 Postby Chacor » Wed Apr 16, 2008 8:59 am

Elegy for the Tech (BBC World Service documentary)

Today marks the first anniversary since the Virginia Tech massacre on April 16, 2007, when 32 people lost their lives for no good reason.

The BBC World Service enlisted the help of a lecturer at VT, who lost a student and once taught the shooter, to reflect on the incident and the year since, partly through his and his students' poetry. It's worth a listen.

RIP to the 32.

I can't listen to it now, but my prayers go out to their families and friends as they will forever miss their loved ones. :(

Such a senseless tragedy.
