Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Sara Hood Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Jason Javie Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2007-08-09 Description An account of the resource By: Jason Javie Posted: 4/20/07 The Virginia Tech tragedy will continue to resonate for some time to come, and rightly so. Many questions surrounding last Monday&#39;s events are yet to be answered, and must be in order for the grieving victims and families to move on from the horror that was April 16th, 2007. To be fair, there has been no official statement concretely outlining the events of that fateful Monday morning, although what has been pieced together speaks to a rather shabbily-handled situation. Why was there a delay in the excess of two hours following the first incident before students were notified? Why had President Charles Stegler not declared a campus-wide emergency and locked the school down? Why were students in the classrooms at Norris Hall at 9:10 a.m. trying to make sense of a vague e-mail informing them of the shooting? The only precautionary measure taken by the campus security apparatus prior to 9 a.m. was to lock down the site of the first incident. Shortly after, an e-mail was sent advising the University community of the incident, recommending caution, and instructing them to contact police with any information. Less than one hour later, the gunman reemerged to massacre 30 people in a nearby classroom. One cannot help but ponder if, had more decisive initiatives been taken, many of the deaths and injuries could have been preventable. Freak tragedy, yes-unmanageable, no. As the president of Virginia Tech, Mr. Stegler is responsible for the safety of students during emergencies. In the words of Dr. Sharon Javie, former professor of Marketing at LaSalle University, "It is unconscionable that [Stegler] did not lock the campus down after the first two students were shot. You either apprehend the suspect, or you shut the campus down." I can&#39;t say I disagree. While impossible to predict the first shootings, Mr. Stegler has indicated that he thought the first killings were simply the result of a domestic dispute and that the gunman had fled campus. Even so, it&#39;s better to err on the side of safety. Mr. Stegler gambled with the safety and well-being of his students and lost miserably. Dr. William Dunkleberg, former Dean of the Fox School of Business at Temple University and professor of Economics, explained the sensitivity of the issue. "Your first response in such a situation is that it&#39;s personal and isolated. It is highly unlikely that what occurred is actually the beginning of a killing spree. You&#39;re faced with a dilemma." A dilemma, indeed, but if locking down the campus could ultimately save lives, I doubt many would complain. Also unnerving is the lack of mechanisms in place at schools to identify individuals like Cho Seung-Hui and get them help before they act out. Described as an introvert, Cho shocked his fellow students and English professor with disturbing and violent plays written for a class, now posted on aol.com. Issues of free speech and confidentiality would conflict with such systems, but shouldn&#39;t there be a point where the line is drawn? -- Original Source:<a href=http://www.thehurricaneonline.com/user/index.cfm?event=displayregistrationprompt&requiredregistration=1&thereferer=http%3A//media.www.thehurricaneonline.com/media/storage/paper479/news/2007/04/20/Opinion/What-Went.Wrong.At.Blacksburg-2871105.shtml>The Miami Hurricane - April 20, 2007</a> Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available The Miami Hurricane Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Dominick Tao <dtao@alligator.org> Title A name given to the resource What went wrong at Blacksburg? campus safety university of miami university response university responsibility Document A resource containing textual data.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2007-08-09 Description An account of the resource Publicado por Jose Kaulen C. 19th Abril 2007 Collin Goddard estuvo a centímetros de Cho Seung-Hui durante la masacre del lunes, y escuchó cómo el asesino terminaba con su vida después de haber matado a 30 personas, dice su madre. Después de que las balas fueron disparadas a su alrededor dentro de la sala de Norris Hall, Goddard, un estudiante de 21 años de Estudios Internacionales, jugó con la muerte tal como Cho, dice su madre, Ann Goddard. Esto lo contaba mientras su hijo herido estaba en una cirugía. La terrible experiencia de Goddard comenzó durante su clase de Francés, cuando él y sus compañeros escucharon los disparos desde la entrada. La profesora Jocelyne Couture-Nowak dijo a sus alumnos que llamaran al 911, solo segundos antes de que Cho entrara a la sala y comenzara con la balacera, hiriendo a Goddard en la pierna. "Cho primero fue a través de la primera fila y comenzó a disparar aleatoriamente" dijo. Cho abandonó la sala y regresó momentos después. Colin estaba tendido en el piso de la sala, enfrentándose a la muerte cuando "Él giró la cabeza y vió los zapatos del atacante viniendo hacia su cuerpo". "El atacante estuvo parado junto a él", dice la madre. "Él estaba totalmente asustado de morir", dice, "mantuvo la inteligencia en todo momento, pero estaba muy asustado de morir". El atacante disparó otra vez contra Colin, alcanzádolo en el hombro y en una nalga. Después caminó hacia el frente de la sala, explica Ann. Dos disparos fueron seguidos de silencio. La policía rompió ese silencio gritando "shooter down!, black tag!" ha dicho Goddard, lo que aparentemente son códigos policiales indicando muertes en el lugar. Los policías revisaron los cuerpos en la sala de clases. Couture-Nowak no sobrevivió. Mientras los cirujanos trabajan para curar a su hijo, Goddard dice que ella nunca hubiera querido que la tragedia hubiera sucedido en un momento "de definición en la vida de mi hijo", refiriéndose al último semestre en la carrera de Collin. En cambio, ella hubiera querido un momento de definición de su hijo como "que fuera algo positivo, con una gran celebración en su vida". La cirugía de Collin fue un éxito. Otras nueve personas permanecen heridas en el hospital. Otras tres personas heridas del tiroteo del lunes fueron dadas de alta el hoy. Una de esas personas está recuperándose en el Lewis-Gale Medical Center, cerca de Salem, Virginia. Otros dos pacientes fueron dados de alta desde el Montgomery Regional Hospital en Blacksburg, quedando seis, tres hombres y tres mujeres, todos "estables", de acuerdo al CEO del hospital, Scott Hill. "No tengo palabras para describir la fortaleza de esos estudiantes", ha dicho Hill. "Ellos están trabajando muy duro para recuperarse". Dos pacientes que sufrieron heridas de bala están en buenas condiciones en el New River Valley Hospital, cerca de Radford. En el Roanoke Memorial Hospital, en Roanoke, Virginia, un paciente se mantiene en condición crítica por sus heridas de bala. Otro herido que estaba siendo tratado en Roanoke ha sido transferido a otro hospital, según el portavoz Eric Earnhart, quien se negó a dar el nombre del hospital por un pedido de los familiares. -- Fuente Original: Realidades Varias a.k.a El Blog de Jose Kaulen <a href="http://josekaulen.wordpress.com/tag/virginia-tech/">http://josekaulen.wordpress.com/tag/virginia-tech/</a> Licencia de uso: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/"> Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported.

Han muerto más estudiantes que caminaban por los pasillos de su escuela a manos de otros estudiantes que disparaban por los pasillos de su escuela. No hay lugar a dudas de que todo lo que hemos realizado a nuestro alrededor, es una simulación de la sociedad que nos gustaría ser. Consejos, anuncios, libros, películas, pláticas, conferencias, noviazgos, padres, amistades, todo gira alrededor de este mundo utópico que nos estorba a casa paso que damos. Por todos los lugares hay una figura que debemos imitar, un peso que debemos alcanzar, una cosa que debemos ignorar; la pobreza y la violencia son la verdadera naturaleza de nuestro presente, aún metidos en un café multinacional de la condesa, encontramos restos de esta sociedad que nos persigue y nos obliga a un cinismo pasmoso. Un estudiante, podrían ser dos, entra a su escuela a las 7 de la mañana. En la escuela camina por los pasillos buscando el lugar donde comenzará a disparar. Cuándo está ahí abre fuego ante la mirada atónita de sus compañeros, muere baleado y no se sabe si alguien más le disparó o se suicido. Más de tres decenas de estudiantes muertos en una universidad que podría ser cualquiera, incluso ésta. El presidente George W. Bush llama a lo sucedido en Virginia Tech una tragedia y ofrece sus condolencias, seguramente utiliza el mismo formato que con los soldados que fallecen diario en Irak. Para muchos es la mayor tragedia en la historia universitaria americana, para otros es un tiroteo más de los muchos que se han suscitado en los últimos diez años. Podemos analizar este evento desde muchas perspectivas, sin embargo entre la búsqueda del análisis olvidaremos la más importante: Más de treinta personas fallecieron porque alguien decidió matarlos. ¿Qué hizo a este ciudadano zero tomar un arma, probablemente semiautomática, y disparar a placer en su propia escuela? ¿Cómo se atreve Bush a llamar una tragedia a algo que el mismo ha provocado en otros países? ¿Qué pasa en los Estados Unidos que matar resulta tan fácil? Son preguntas que no habrá forma de responder, pero son preguntas que debemos hacernos. Lo ocurrido en Virginia es un reflejo de la sociedad que hemos fundado, es el resultado de la ansiedad y la violencia que provocamos con esta obligación que tenemos de ser ciegos a la desgracia humana. ¿Cómo podemos respetar la vida si ante nuestros ojos la pobreza es un momento incómodo a media cena? Algo no está bien y no podemos seguir negándolo. Hemos tomado decisiones equivocadas y en la inercia social las transcurrimos sin poner verdadera atención a aquello en que nos convertimos. ¿Realmente hace falta un tiroteo, un suicidio, un doble asesinato, para darnos cuenta que hemos dejado de funcionar como sociedad? Me preocupa pensar que la respuesta es sí, si no sale en primetime en una televisora internacional no ocurre. Insisto, este evento ocurrió en una Universidad, fue perpetrado por un estudiante que quizá compartía opiniones y aficiones con algunos de ustedes; en el murieron estudiantes como ustedes, por razones que quizá ustedes tampoco comprendan; si les sirve de consuelo, tampoco las comprendo yo. Sin embargo es tiempo de revaluar a este ciudadano zero escondido en los rincones de las escuelas, las oficinas, los hogares, pensar en que es aquello que le estamos pidiendo que haga que lo orilla a tomar un arma y hacer algo grandioso, algo que lo ponga en primetime mundial. -- Fuente Original: <a href="http://fachal.blogspot.com/2007/04/virginia-tech.html">http://fachal.blogspot.com/2007/04/virginia-tech.html</a> Licencia de uso: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.5/mx/"> Creative Commons Atribución-No Comercial-No Derivadas 2.5 México.

I joined the UM faculty as a lecturer in the English department this year, but I originally hail from the Southwestern Virginia area; both my father and brother are Tech alumni, and Dr. Loganathon, one of the slain professors, was very fondly remembered by my brother as a popular and inspiring teacher. My brother wanted me to let my students know that he and many of his former classmates were deeply touched by this message of support and that in this time of great sorrow... this gesture went a long way towards making them feel better. What happened on one campus has been felt on all of them, and united we will heal. Thank you.
