This really hits close to home for me. I'm orginially from Southwest VA just about 2 - 2 1/2 hours if that from Blacksburg. I have lots of family that lives in the Roanoke/Salem area as well. It just really hits home. Three of my aunt's 4 girls graduated from Tech and my nephew hopes to transfer to Tech not this fall but next fall. I could hardly watch it today. All I could do was cry.
It's such a tragedy. It's a shame that our kids can't get an education whether it is high school or college without having to worry about something like this happening. |
