As you know, the Virginia Tech community will be honoring those affected by the tragic events of April 16, 2007 with a 'Day of Remembrance' on Wednesday April 16, 2008. In addition to the special ceremonies scheduled for this day, the university and the Blacksburg community will be hosting many other activities related to remembrance, recognition and healing. Further, our campus will be hosting several major events including women's softball on Wednesday, a concert at Burruss Hall on Thursday night, and our annual spring football game on Saturday.
These events will, of course, draw many visitors to our campus and require significant resources from our police department. To ensure the timely and efficient delivery of our services, the Virginia Tech Police Department has decided to accept the generous offers of assistance from other law enforcement agencies in and around our community. Through these partnerships, the Virginia Tech Police Department hopes to create an environment of comfort and safety for students, faculty, staff, and visitors as they experience the events of this important week.
The presence of these officers should not be seen as a cause for concern, but rather as yet another example of the support our university continues to receive. Should have any questions or concerns, please contact your Virginia Tech Police Department.
Thank you.
