United we will heal
Title
United we will heal
Description
I'm writing simply to thank the UM community for its compassion in its response to the tragedy at Virginia Tech. 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.
