The Virginia Tech community continues to reach out to those at Northern Illinois University.

Throughout today, numerous university administrators, faculty and students have been in contact with counterparts at NIU to offer assistance, advice, and support. The university will continue to lend support as long as it is needed.

Cook Counseling Center will be open Saturday, Feb. 16 and Sunday, Feb. 17 from noon to 5 p.m. Walk-in appointments are welcome to students who may wish to seek support should difficult memories of last year&#39;s event resurface. The center can be reached at 231-6557 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Employees seeking assistance can call 866-725-0602 anytime 24 hours a day.

Hokies United is planning a candlelight vigil Monday night on Alumni Mall, near Torgersen Bridge. The event will be at dusk, approximately 6:30 p.m. Everyone in the Blacksburg and Virginia Tech communities are welcome.

Hokies United is also asking everyone to wear red and black on Monday to show solidarity and support for the Northern Illinois University community.
