&#13;
In honor of the 33 lives lost during the Virginia Tech shooting on April 16, University students and community members held a candlelight vigil in the Erb Memorial Union Amphitheater on Monday night.&#13;
&#13;
Tea lights dotted the photographs of the 33 victims that lined the bottom step of the amphitheater. Attendees quietly lit candles and wrote their thoughts to the victims&amp;#39; friends and families on white pieces of paper that would later be sent to Virginia Tech.&#13;
&#13;
University junior and family and human services major Jory Card organized the event through a Facebook group commemorating the victims of last week&amp;#39;s shooting.&#13;
&#13;
"These people are just like us - they could be your friends, your family," Card said to the crowd of about 60 attendees. "This is a time to be quiet with your friends and honor those who were lost."&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
---&#13;
&#13;
&lt;a href="http://media.www.dailyemerald.com/media/storage/paper859/news/2007/04/24/Video/Video.Campus.Mourns.Virginia.Tech-2876566.shtml"&gt;Watch video from the vigil&lt;/a&gt;&#13;
&#13;
---&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
University senior and journalism major Meghan Hilliard heard out about the event from Card, who is her roommate. Hilliard said she had a "reality check" when Card brought home the stack of 33 photographs of the victims later used for the vigil.&#13;
&#13;
"The fact that the pictures take up the whole first row of our EMU amphitheater, I think is astounding," Hilliard said. "It&amp;#39;s a real eye-opening visual because we hear of the 33 victims, but to see them is really impacting."&#13;
&#13;
Lane Community College freshman Elizabeth Ashworth said she came to the vigil to pay respect to the Virginia Tech students and faculty.&#13;
&#13;
"I realize how short life is and that it can be taken away, just like these people here," Ashworth said.&#13;
&#13;
Ashworth heard about the vigil from her friend Megan Funke, a University freshman and psychology major, who also emphasized the importance of paying her respects to those affected by the shooting.&#13;
&#13;
"If my friends were gone like this tomorrow, I don&amp;#39;t know what I would do; it&amp;#39;s such a huge tragedy." Funke said. "There are a lot of people whose lives (the victims) did affect, and I don&amp;#39;t think that should be forgotten just because we&amp;#39;re far away. "&#13;
&#13;
Hilliard agreed that the far distance from Virginia Tech is unimportant, and that unfortunate events like the Virginia Tech shooting unite students across the country.&#13;
&#13;
"In situations like this, campuses unite as one; campus lines are blurred since we&amp;#39;re all going to school," Hilliard said. "This happened about 3,000 miles away, but it&amp;#39;s still pertinent here and everywhere else."&#13;
&#13;
Card said he wanted to bring students together one week after the shooting to remind them that they have "the ultimate say in our campus&amp;#39; safety."&#13;
&#13;
"I want to honor the victims and spark a change on campus to bring us together," Card said. "I&amp;#39;d like to re-evaluate the true meaning of having a safe campus."&#13;
&#13;
Card said that "safety" should extend further than "physical safety." People should also be respectful of those who have different opinions and backgrounds.&#13;
&#13;
He asked the attendees: "How many times have you seen someone on 13th Avenue that you recognize and just ignore? I&amp;#39;m guilty of it too. My challenge to you is to find a way to bring us together as a campus."&#13;

Subject: Media and the return to school&#13;
&#13;
Wednesday, August 15, 2007&#13;
&#13;
TO: The students, faculty, and staff of Virginia Tech&#13;
 &#13;
RE: Media and the return to school&#13;
 &#13;
With the beginning of the fall 2007 semester, there will be intense media interest in the Virginia Tech community in light of the events of April 16. While some may prefer otherwise, there will again be many broadcasters, reporters, and cameras on the campus. Indeed, some already are on campus.&#13;
 &#13;
Our university is public property. Our roads are public thoroughfares. We cannot bar the media from campus. However, although our buildings are open to the public, residence halls, offices, and classrooms are restricted. Faculty members control entry to classrooms while teaching there. Labs are open only to those authorized. Offices are semi-private spaces open to anyone with a reason to be there. University residence halls are living quarters and open only to those living there and their guests.&#13;
 &#13;
What should you do if a member of the news media approaches you for an interview? You are never REQUIRED to speak to the media. Politely telling a reporter "no thank you" will suffice. If a reporter is particularly troublesome, just walk away and do not feel guilty about doing so.&#13;
 &#13;
However, I am proud -- very, very proud -- of our university community and how we have represented ourselves to the world through the media over the past several months. You have shown the world the special nature of Hokie Spirit. If you are comfortable, feel free to speak about yourselves, your involvement with the university, or your feelings about the future. I wouldn&amp;#39;t be surprised if reporters want to take you back to April 16. You control discussion and you talk about what you want to talk about. It&amp;#39;s your time.&#13;
 &#13;
Should you engage a reporter, take advantage of the opportunity to share some Hokie Spirit. The world mourned with us and maintains an interest in the collective health of our extended university community. I believe that most reporters share this concern and compassion. With so many reporters present, this is a unique opportunity to again convey the character of our community and tell a little about why Virginia Tech and Blacksburg are such very special places.&#13;
 &#13;
Sincerely yours,&#13;

Subject: 	Preparing for Media on April 16&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
March 2008&#13;
&#13;
To the Students, Faculty, and Staff of Virginia Tech&#13;
 &#13;
As you can imagine, there remains significant ongoing media interest in Virginia Tech in light of the tragedy that occurred on our campus last April 16.  As is customary for an event of this magnitude - one that gripped not only reporters, but the entire world -  there will be anniversary coverage on or around April 16, 2008.&#13;
&#13;
We expect again to have many, many reporters, broadcasters, and cameras on campus during that week and/or at the remembrances planned for that day.&#13;
&#13;
As I did last year, let me again apprise you of our policy and the law. Our university is public property. Roads are public thoroughfares.  We cannot bar the media, although many have suggested it.  We will be working to provide appropriate but limited access to the campus.  I believe that most were respectful of you and the circumstances of our healing last year.&#13;
&#13;
Reporters (or other visitors) are never allowed in classrooms without the faculty member&amp;#39;s permission.  This is a moot point, since classes are cancelled on April 16.  Still, we are apprising the media to refrain from entering academic buildings before or after April 16.  Residence halls are always off limits to any visitor unless approved by a resident or a member of the student affairs&amp;#39; leadership.  Spaces like offices and labs are always controlled by the occupants. Certain university buildings have nominal public access and you may bump into a reporter.  If a building is open to the public, it is open to all members of the public.&#13;
&#13;
What should you do if a member of the news media approaches you for an interview either on that day or before?  You are never REQUIRED to speak to a reporter.  Politely telling a reporter &amp;#39;no thank you&amp;#39; will suffice.  If a reporter is particularly insistent, just walk away and do not feel guilty about doing so. We have posted media guidelines at www.remembrance.vt.edu.&#13;
&#13;
However, we have a powerful story to tell. We have prevailed and we are healing.  The Hokie Nation is strong. You have represented us well during some very trying times.  You have shown the world the special nature of Hokie Spirit and our sense of community.   The close-knit nature of this academic community was readily apparent throughout the days and months after April&amp;#39;s tragedy and continues.&#13;
&#13;
If interviewed, I would expect a reporter to ask you about April 16.   Go only as far as you feel comfortable.  You control the discussion. Students and professors with whom I&amp;#39;ve discussed this possibility are in different places emotionally.  Many are ready to move on and speak to the now or the future.  Frankly, I like to focus on what we were before April 16 and what we remain today - one of America&amp;#39;s leading universities focused on learning, discovery, and engagement.  You help invent the future.&#13;
&#13;
Virginia Tech&amp;#39;s reputation and legacy are founded on the quality of its people.  I have great confidence in the university community and the institution as we continue on the road to recovery.&#13;
&#13;
If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office at unirel@vt.edu or 231-5396.&#13;

Sincerely yours,&#13;

                <text>Reflections as a Director of a Psychology Training Clinic on the &#13;
shooting tragedy at Virginia Tech &#13;
(Written for the Association of Directors of Psychology Training Clinics)&#13;
&#13;
On the morning of April 16, 2007, a male student shot to death 32 students and faculty, wounded 17 more, and then killed himself on the campus of Virginia Tech.  In the midst of unspeakable grief, the Virginia Tech and Blacksburg community, with tremendous support from many people, did an incredible job of responding as best as it could to meet the needs of those most deeply affected.  My purpose of this article is to briefly describe my experiences and reflections on the role of the psychology training clinic and my role as the Director in the days following this particularly tragic event.&#13;
&#13;
To better understand our response, a brief description of the type and structure of clinical services at Virginia Tech.  Like any major higher-learning institution, Virginia Tech has an on-campus, university-based counseling center, the Cook Counseling Center, which has a staff of 10-12 full-time counselors, 3-5 interns, 3-5 externship students, and 1-2 psychiatrists.  The Psychological Services Center of Virginia, of which I am the Director, is an off-campus, community-based training facility for the Ph.D. Clinical Psychology program in the Department of Psychology.  At any one time, we typically have 20-25 graduate students in various stages of their training enrolled in clinical practicum and seeing clients.  Additionally, the Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) program also has an off-campus training center for their graduate students.  The Cook Counseling Center and the Psychological Services Center (and the MFT clinic) are separate facilities and organizations.  Over the years, our relationship with the counseling center has been good especially in terms of reciprocal referral and training opportunities.  &#13;
&#13;
In response to the shootings, the primary "clinical" responder to the university community was the Cook Counseling Center and the primary care service for the local community was the state operated Community Services Board, whereas the Psychological Services Center was viewed as one of a multitude of secondary "overflow" support systems.  The Director of the Cook Counseling Center, who fortunately for Virginia Tech had prior direct disaster response experience, quickly and efficiently took the role as a leader of the psychological first aid response effort for the university.  I was part of multiple meetings focused on the university&amp;#39;s response to the shootings and my consistent observation was that everything seemed to be well covered by the staff of the Cook Counseling Center and related university systems (e.g., Student Affairs).  Similarly, the number of professional therapists, counselors, disaster workers, Red Cross workers, state-mandated mental health crisis team members, state health insurance disaster workers, etc. that came to our town to help was immense.  In sum, there was way more supportive/therapeutic help available than was needed, which was a good thing to see and feel as a community.&#13;
&#13;
In the meantime, many of our clinical psychology graduate students came to me with questions of what they could do and suggestions for what we could do.  As it turned out, a significant subset of students helped out with the Red Cross.  Similar to my perceptions about the abundance of "therapists", they noted many more disaster relief workers were available than needed.  Another subset of students took to searching for information and developing an information-based manual for crisis response and management.  This was a very gracious effort, and probably helped us more in terms of alleviating our own anxiety that we could be helpful than actually imparting previously unknown information.  That is, being trained to be a "caring listener" was the most helpful clinical skill during these times. And yet another subset of students found their way into very helpful roles in the aftermath; being a "right hand person" for a disaster relief director; helping to orient visiting families, getting water and food for relief workers, etc. &#13;
&#13;
Honestly, our help as a training clinic was not needed or necessary.  Being good people, being so close to a tragic event, and the fact that we are trained (or in training) psychologists, we felt driven to help and everyone did their best.  I was, and continue to be, extremely proud of how our students reacted by giving of themselves to help others. But between all the service organizations and trained personnel provided by the state, city, and university, all was more than adequately covered.  We had a few current and new clients come in for emergency-type sessions, but no onslaught of folks needing therapy. My take on it all now is that our role in helping was not as psychologists or therapists, but as fellow members of a shocked and grieving community. &#13;
&#13;
I did two related things that week that, at least I believe, reveal the essence of what was truly important in a time of crisis.  One was listening to my wife when she announced two days after the shootings that she was tired of us watching the news and becoming numb, and then preceded to call our good friends and invite them to a casual dinner party that evening.  In her own special way, she was saying what we needed to do was be with each other.  The second thing, following this same theme, was that I held a meeting of all clinical psychology graduate students and faculty.  In that meeting, I expressed my thoughts about the tremendous amount and level of care available to everyone in the community, that I truly appreciated the students&amp;#39; help and many offers of help, and that I was very proud of them.  But, at that time, I felt that our path to recovery was to acknowledge that we were also affected by this tragedy, to let others do their job, support each other, and to grieve with each other.  In short, be with each other.  Moreover, our services will be needed in six months or so, and for many years beyond, and as such, we should focus on our own health and be ready when needed.  Many have commented since then that this is what they needed to hear and helped them to move on with their own recovery.  Upon reflection, my most effective act as a Director was to let the students know that being a psychologist for the community was not their job, rather, to be a loving partner, friend, student, mentor, colleague, and parent was their duty in such tragedy and sadness, as it was mine.&#13;

Deep Blue Ridge Rain&#13;
&#13;
Deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, lies a beautiful place I know&#13;
Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, it&amp;#39;s the place I now call home&#13;
But today I am in great pain, as the world looks here to mourn&#13;
A most hateful thing among us, taking with it those so young&#13;
&#13;
Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain&#13;
As the mountains cry&#13;
Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia&amp;#39;s proud remain&#13;
We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride&#13;
Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight&#13;
&#13;
Deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, people smile and say hello&#13;
They are always wanting to help you, real people, you know&#13;
Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, so far from the world&amp;#39;s strife&#13;
But the world came crashing in today, violent, destroying life&#13;
&#13;
Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain&#13;
As the mountains cry&#13;
Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia&amp;#39;s proud remain&#13;
We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride&#13;
Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight&#13;
&#13;
Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the pain is running high&#13;
No one understands it; no one can, though you try&#13;
But high on the mountain tops where strength abounds&#13;
Blue Ridge Mountains rock hard people will &#13;
Rebuild the aura and town&#13;
&#13;
Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain&#13;
As the mountains cry&#13;
Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia&amp;#39;s proud remain&#13;
We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride&#13;
Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight.&#13;

                <text>&lt;b&gt;Advocating presence of more guns will not prevent another Virginia Tech&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
By: Leigh A. Needleman and Andrew Freshman&#13;
Posted: 4/24/07&#13;
&#13;
Like so many of the other members of the Davis community, since I first heard about the shootings at Virginia Tech on Monday morning, I have been seeking answers. However, the more that I scour the Web and listen to the news, the more questions I have: Why? What was the motivation? How could this have been prevented? How can this be prevented from happening ever again? How could this be prevented here?&#13;
&#13;
On Tuesday, Apr. 17, I read the article "UC Davis responds to Virginia Tech shootings." I wanted to share my fellow Aggies&amp;#39; reaction to the news. To my horror, I read sophomore McKenzie Bryan&amp;#39;s quote: "I really believe that if we did not have &amp;#39;gun-free zones&amp;#39; or really strict gun control, there could have been people on that campus that could have stopped the shooter right after he got started, way before the SWAT teams got there." I had to reread this quote several times.&#13;
&#13;
Bryan seems to be advocating that members of university communities carry around guns, prepared for armed assault at any time. This very idea causes me to feel profoundly physically ill. (Leaving aside for a moment the idea of the typical college drinking party with the incendiary addition of guns....)&#13;
&#13;
I try to imagine how events might have transpired at Virginia Tech on Monday if members of the community had been armed: One day students are in class when a gunman suddenly enters and begins indiscriminately shooting. Some of the students in the class pull out their guns and fire back. Panic and confusion ensues - who is shooting whom and for what reason? Faculty and staff as well as students are drawn by the noise and join the skirmish. Innocent bystanders are caught in the crossfire. Half an hour later, the SWAT team enters. Several students have their weapons drawn and are shooting. The SWAT team, unable to determine deranged psychopath from righteous Samaritan, makes the logical decision to "take out" all individuals with a gun. How is this a better outcome than the one in Virginia?&#13;
&#13;
Being an open-minded person, I have wracked my brain to try to understand the suggestion that more guns on campus would lead to a safer community. The declaration of a "gun-free zone" has little to no bearing on whether people are actually able to carry weapons. I am furthermore unaware of any colleges or universities that have implemented any sort of metal detectors or other devices to actively detect and deprive university community members from carrying guns. It therefore seems irrelevant to raise this point in relation to this situation.&#13;
&#13;
I would advocate for the complete opposite of Bryan. Suppose that easily concealed semiautomatic pistols and ammunition could not be easily obtained by the general public? The likelihood of a delusional and depressed student with homicidal tendencies being able to successfully carry out a massacre on the scale of the incident at Virginia Tech without such weapons would be greatly reduced.&#13;
&#13;
Unfortunately, Bryan and other un-pragmatic gun extremists such as the National Rifle Association continue to advocate for the easy availability of guns that indirectly create the possibility for similar incidents. What is the benefit to society of the proliferation of these weapons in the community?&#13;
&#13;
Our hearts and minds go out to all who have been affected by this senseless, nightmarish and terrible act. The last thing that they (or any of the rest of us) need to read at a time like this is someone advocating the presence of more guns on college campuses.&#13;

                <text>The media need our help to shift their focus from murderers and violence to the compassionate healing journeys of victims&amp;#39; families:&#13;
&#13;
After the Virginia Tech tragedy, the president of the American Psychiatric Association, Pedro Ruiz, wrote an open letter to the news media asking them to stop focusing on the murderer. Ruiz warned that the publicity would inspire copycat crimes.&#13;
&#13;
Please visit &lt;a href="http://www.lenznichols.com/"&gt;www.lenznichols.com&lt;/a&gt; and sign "The Petition" encouraging the media to stop reporting the names of school shooters along with any information related to the misguided purpose of their crime. Together we can make a meaningful difference.&#13;

                <text>&lt;b&gt;Feeling guilty for sharing the Virginia Tech gunman&amp;#39;s ethnicity will do more harm than good&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
&#13;
By Lina Chung&#13;
Friday, April 20, 2007&#13;
&#13;
After Monday&amp;#39;s Virginia Tech tragedy, shock reverberated among the Korean American community - the shooter, 23-year-old student Cho Seung-Hui, was a man of South Korean nationality.&#13;
&#13;
But, in an attempt to avert racial backlash, members of the community have only victimized themselves by allowing Cho&amp;#39;s nationality to spark a collective sense of guilt and responsibility.&#13;
&#13;
"All Koreans in South Korea - as well as here - must bow their heads and apologize to the people of America," said the Rev. Dong Sun Lim, founder of the Oriental Mission Church in Koreatown, according to the Los Angeles Times.&#13;
&#13;
As a Korean American student, I sensed my parents&amp;#39; fear of racial backlash when they called me Tuesday night. Worried about the media frenzy surrounding Monday&amp;#39;s tragedy, they suggested I come home for the week until the situation calmed down.&#13;
&#13;
I was initially baffled at my parents&amp;#39; concerns. But the following day, The New York Times and Los Angeles Times published articles reflecting this fear among South Korean parents across the U.S.&#13;
&#13;
And racial epithets against South Koreans were also flooding the Internet. Blog posts on sites such as Facebook and Sepia Mutiny (a blog site created by South Asians) attacked and pigeonholed South Koreans as violent, destructive people.&#13;
&#13;
"Koreans are the most hotheaded and macho of East Asians," said a Sepia Mutiny commentator.&#13;
&#13;
"Take that shit back to your own nation," said a Facebook user, according to an MSNBC article.&#13;
&#13;
Other Korean American UCLA students also observed a rise in concern among their parents.&#13;
&#13;
First-year business economics student Janice No, whose parents live in Virginia, expressed how her parents felt a heightened sense of uneasiness regarding Monday&amp;#39;s massacre.&#13;
&#13;
"My family was concerned for my safety as a general university student," she said. "But the fact the shooter was Korean only increased their worrying."&#13;
&#13;
Even the South Korean foreign ministry issued a statement earlier this week that it hoped the tragedy and Cho&amp;#39;s South Korean nationality wouldn&amp;#39;t incite "racial prejudice or confrontation."&#13;
&#13;
Although events in the past few years - such as the 1992 L.A. riots, in which Korean-owned businesses were targeted and looted - have burned a harsh memory within the Korean American community in Los Angeles, we must acknowledge that Cho&amp;#39;s actions were in no way a reflection on South Koreans as a whole.&#13;
&#13;
"Korean American students have assimilated more to American culture and don&amp;#39;t feel threatened by the situation. We understand the gunman had personal problems that caused his attack and that it could&amp;#39;ve been someone from any race," said second-year aerospace engineering student and L.A. resident Anthony Suh, who says his parents&amp;#39; concerns stemmed from their experience with the L.A. riots.&#13;
&#13;
In regards to UCLA, some students feel secure that no danger or harm will arise due to their racial identities as Korean Americans.&#13;
&#13;
"There&amp;#39;s such a big Korean community at UCLA, so I don&amp;#39;t feel threatened," third-year molecular, cell and developmental biology student Yoonah Lee said. "But the fact (the gunman) was Korean just makes me more aware of the situation."&#13;
&#13;
Awareness may be justified, but openly acknowledging a sense of responsibility for having a shared ethnicity with Cho is not the right approach; it will only allow for stereotypes and more negativity to ensue.&#13;
&#13;
By choosing to walk in shame, we allow ourselves to be targeted. By choosing to hide, we allow ourselves to be hunted.&#13;
&#13;
Now is not the time for pointing fingers or living in fear. In the wake of such a horrible tragedy, our only collective responsibility - no matter what our ethnicity may be - is to offer support and sympathy to the Virginia Tech victims and their families in this time of need.&#13;

&#13;
University students dug through their closets to find anything maroon and orange -- two colors all Hoos had previously tried to avoid -- to demonstrate their support of Virginia Tech at the vigil held last night.&#13;
&#13;
As candlelight slowly spread around the Amphitheater and flags from both universities were displayed, President John Casteen, III began his address to an overwhelmingly maroon and orange audience.&#13;
&#13;
"Tonight we have come together to talk, to meditate on, to mourn the deaths of Virginia Tech students and faculty members," Casteen said to an eerily silent crowd.&#13;
&#13;
Yesterday afternoon, Casteen attended a convocation held at Virginia Tech, later remarking that the somber atmosphere among students there was still "assertive of life."&#13;
&#13;
"Today was for them -- tonight is also for them, but tonight is for you, too," Casteen said, addressing the many University students who suffered losses Monday.&#13;
&#13;
Four of the 33 deaths hit especially close to home here at the University. Liviu Librescu, a professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics at Virginia Tech, was the father of a fourth-year University student. According to Casteen, Librescu&amp;#39;s daughter wanted the community to think of her father "not as a part of the general description of the tragedy, but as a person dedicated" to his work.&#13;
&#13;
Kevin Granata was an engineering professor at the University until 2003, when he began teaching in Tech&amp;#39;s Engineering Science and Mechanics department. While at the University, Casteen said Granata also worked in the Kluge Children&amp;#39;s Research Center studying human gaits in order to design therapy for children with cerebral palsy.&#13;
&#13;
Second-year Nursing student Randa Samaha lost her sister, Reema Samaha, a freshman at Tech.&#13;
&#13;
First-year College student Adrienne Fadoul also lost her first cousin Monday.&#13;
&#13;
"What, then, shall we do?" Casteen asked, quoting the Gospel of St. Luke.&#13;
&#13;
Regarding practical measures to protect the University, Casteen assured students that all current procedures were under review. He noted that other forms of instantaneous notice systems, such as text messaging, are being explored in addition to e-mail alerts.&#13;
&#13;
Casteen also advised students to report any suspicious activities or persons.&#13;
&#13;
"Grounds is a sanctuary for students and faculty ... a sanctuary remarkably fragile -- we know all of the boundaries, and they are all permeable," he said.&#13;
&#13;
Emphasizing the close community of the University, Casteen urged students to "stay in Charlottesville and be close to friends. Reach out to one another."&#13;
&#13;
Casteen also focused on more abstract lessons that Monday&amp;#39;s events taught the world of higher education.&#13;
&#13;
Ultimately, we need to "train [our] hearts to change the world with the intent to [make such events] that fracture higher education rare, rarer, rarest," Casteen said.&#13;
&#13;
He recalled looking out at a gathering of Virginia Tech students yesterday afternoon on their football field, a community that "refused to be broken completely by loss," realizing that the hardest thing to reconcile was the "finality of violent, irrational death in a community of young, vibrant people ... consolation is hard to offer in that situation."&#13;
&#13;
When Casteen ended his address, the Amphitheater was filled with the tangible silence of the hundreds of students in attendance. Student Council provided scrolls and posters for University students to sign, which will be sent to Virginia Tech later this week.&#13;
&#13;
Once students began to gather around the banners, a quiet murmur replaced the silence.&#13;
&#13;
"I thought it was great to be able to come together and think about and remember it the way that we could," third-year College student D.J. Ward said. "To sit in unison and solidarity is really all we can do."&#13;
&#13;
Many students also noted the setting aside of the traditional rivalry between the two universities.&#13;
&#13;
"We&amp;#39;re all one community," third-year Commerce student Brian Edwards said. "What they go through is what we go through. It could easily have been us. I hope anything they need from us we can give to them."&#13;
&#13;
Third-year College student Nina Cohen added that she thought Virginia Tech would do the same for the University "in a second."&#13;
&#13;
Other students said they felt like the vigil could have been more meaningful. Second-year College students Mary Ford and Pavit Gill said they expected more from Casteen. Second-year College student Casey Furr added that he believed the vigil was "anti-climatic."&#13;
&#13;
Second-year College student Nadine Natour said she was glad the University was showing its support, but she wished there could have been a more emotional element, such as something more along the lines of the poem read by Nikki Giovanni at Virginia Tech&amp;#39;s convocation.&#13;
&#13;
On the whole, though, students were satisfied with the turnout and the showing of solidarity.&#13;
&#13;
"I just really appreciate that we did this, for us and for them," first-year College student Vetan Kapoor said. "It meant a lot."&#13;
&#13;
The final words of Casteen&amp;#39;s address seemed to emphasize the thoughts of all those who attended: "Let us remember the 33 human lives. Let us pray for the lives that have changed forever ... and also for those who loved them, and let us share their grief for the future as they seek solace in life."&#13;

In the wake of yesterday&amp;#39;s tragedy, many University students felt unable to help their peers at Virginia Tech. Within seven hours of the shootings, however, plans were under way for programs to reach out to the Tech community.&#13;
&#13;
Fourth-year College student Raleigh Anne Blank took steps to create a group called Hoos For Hokies, an umbrella organization that will help direct different programs to provide aid to Virginia Tech in the following weeks.&#13;
&#13;
"It&amp;#39;s a group that&amp;#39;s supposed to be a central contact point for people to know about events that are going on," Blank said. The group will also keep students updated on how they can "help University students who were affected and Tech students who were affected."&#13;
&#13;
Blank, who also helped begin the Katrina Aid and Relief Effort last August, said Hoos for Hokies was created in much the same way, by establishing an account with Alumni Hall and pooling together resources with interested students and Student Council.&#13;
&#13;
Students will be able to donate to Hoos for Hokies during events to be held at the University through the next few weeks. . Representatives were present at the vigil held last night in the Amphitheater. According to Blank, Hoos for Hokies raised "a lot of money" at the vigil and has started receiving donations online as well.&#13;
&#13;
Although Hoos for Hokies and Student Council are keeping in touch with Virginia Tech, Blank said she does not know for certain what the money raised will go toward, adding that already "having an arm to move for fundraising [through Hoos for Hokies] will make it happen pretty quickly."&#13;
&#13;
"All of the money will go to Virginia Tech," fourth-year College student Elizabeth Chu said. "We&amp;#39;re trying to be as least intrusive as possible and following with whatever Virginia Tech needs for the moment."According to Chu, Virginia Tech&amp;#39;s student council president expressed a need for 30,000 candles, and Hoos for Hokies helped find candles and arranged for them to be sent to Blacksburg.&#13;
&#13;
Chu is also organizing a "love letter writing campaign" to be held Thursday, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at Pavilion III, during which University students will be able to write letters to the families of the victims.&#13;
&#13;
"This is the most personal way for U.Va. students to express ... how saddened we are [and] how horrified we are with what happened," Chu said.&#13;
&#13;
Blank urged students wishing to contribute to Hoos for Hokies to visit www.hoosonline.virginia.edu/tech.&#13;

                <text>Today, I had the opportunity to attend the Penn State Blue &amp; White football game. What an experience to be blessed with after this terrible week&amp;#39;s happenings. It was truly inspiring to see the support for Virginia Tech. Everywhere I looked, students and alumni, friends and family were wearing Hokie orange and maroon. It&amp;#39;s so hard to describe the pride I felt seeing this rival school sending their love, prayers and respect to VTech. It is amazing how we as a society can come together and love and pray for those who are hurting - now wouldn&amp;#39;t it be more amazing if we could do the same every day, good or bad?&#13;
&#13;
Everyone was wearing orange and maroon - as opposed to the usual blue and white.&#13;
