A somber solidarity
description: Lindsey Wagner, Cavalier Daily Life Editor University students dug through their closets to find anything maroon and orange -- two colors all Hoos had previously tried to avoid -- to demonstrate their support of Virginia Tech at the vigil held last night. As candlelight slowly spread around the Amphitheater and flags from both universities were displayed, President John Casteen, III began his address to an overwhelmingly maroon and orange audience. "Tonight we have come together to talk, to meditate on, to mourn the deaths of Virginia Tech students and faculty members," Casteen said to an eerily silent crowd. Yesterday afternoon, Casteen attended a convocation held at Virginia Tech, later remarking that the somber atmosphere among students there was still "assertive of life." "Today was for them -- tonight is also for them, but tonight is for you, too," Casteen said, addressing the many University students who suffered losses Monday. Four of the 33 deaths hit especially close to home here at the University. Liviu Librescu, a professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics at Virginia Tech, was the father of a fourth-year University student. According to Casteen, Librescu's daughter wanted the community to think of her father "not as a part of the general description of the tragedy, but as a person dedicated" to his work. Kevin Granata was an engineering professor at the University until 2003, when he began teaching in Tech's Engineering Science and Mechanics department. While at the University, Casteen said Granata also worked in the Kluge Children's Research Center studying human gaits in order to design therapy for children with cerebral palsy. Second-year Nursing student Randa Samaha lost her sister, Reema Samaha, a freshman at Tech. First-year College student Adrienne Fadoul also lost her first cousin Monday. "What, then, shall we do?" Casteen asked, quoting the Gospel of St. Luke. Regarding practical measures to protect the University, Casteen assured students t…

A Special Update for Alumni on the April 16th Tragedy...
description: Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2007 12:06:17 -0400 From: Virginia Tech Alumni Association <vatechalumni@vt.edu> To: ALL ALUMNI SEPT 2007 <vatechalumni@vt.edu> Subject: A Special Update for Alumni on the April 16th Tragedy... I write on 9/11, the sixth anniversary of a tragedy that is etched into the memories of the citizens of the world. No act against our country, and indeed any free society, could have been more horrific or more cruel to end so many thousands of innocent lives in the course of a few hours. We remember that day and honor its victims, especially two of our own alumni who perished. Virginia Tech, not many years later, was the scene of another horrific act, a massacre carried out by one individual, which was unparalleled in our nation's history. Another date that will remain etched in our memories. Our hearts continue to go out to the families of the students and faculty who lost their lives, and to the survivors of that day who suffered both physical and emotional injury. From all that has been learned about the student responsible for the killings, some have said he was intent on mass murder regardless of what anyone else did. Much has happened to aid in the healing of our university, including its extended family of alumni and supporters everywhere. The poignant moment that first signaled healing was when Poet Nikki Giovanni ended our memorial convocation with the words "We ARE Virginia Tech" and then threw open her arms to the audience as they cheered. Her gesture at that moment, and the response that followed, convinced me we were going to be alright. Many solemn ceremonies followed that day for weeks and months, and grieving continued. At our Commencement ceremony in May, most parents of the slain students were in attendance and were presented memorial class rings and posthumous degrees. President Charles Steger gave truly the "speech of his career" to comfort the audience and send a message of encouragement. Commencement was a new beginning and a significan…

A Tribute Song to VT
description: Although I have not finished with music that I feel is worthy yet, I wanted to share the words with our VT families. My prayers are with all of the families. Lee Stephens - Christiansburg Deep Blue Ridge Rain Deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, lies a beautiful place I know Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, it's the place I now call home But today I am in great pain, as the world looks here to mourn A most hateful thing among us, taking with it those so young Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain As the mountains cry Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia's proud remain We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight Deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, people smile and say hello They are always wanting to help you, real people, you know Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, so far from the world's strife But the world came crashing in today, violent, destroying life Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain As the mountains cry Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia's proud remain We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight Yes deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the pain is running high No one understands it; no one can, though you try But high on the mountain tops where strength abounds Blue Ridge Mountains rock hard people will Rebuild the aura and town Blue Ridge Rain, the reflection of the pain As the mountains cry Tears flowing, hearts broken, Virginia's proud remain We have lost our innocence but certainly not our pride Those that are not a Hokie, you have to be one tonight.

A Tribute to Professor G. V. Loganathan (Editorial)
description: (PDF, 36KB; full text copied below) EDITORIAL A Tribute to Professor G. V. Loganathan Arun K. Deb, Ph.D., P.E., F.ASCE Vice President (Ret.), Weston Solutions, Inc. E-mail: arundeb@msn.com April 16, 2007 started like any other day on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg, Virginia. Dr. G. V. Loganathan, a professor in the Civil and Environmental Engineering department at Virginia Tech left his home near the campus to teach a graduate class on Advanced Hydrology in room number 206 of Norris Hall. He never returned home. Loganathan, along with nine of his students, was killed by a gunman. It was the worst massacre on a university campus in the history of the United States. Very soon, the news started to flash on TV screens. I became concerned as I know quite a few faculty members at Virginia Tech, but never expected one of my dearest friends to be among the victims. I was stunned when I saw Prof. Loganathan's name on TV as one of the victims. I barely got over the shock when I received a call from one of my friends confirming the news. I opened my e-mail to see several messages in this regard. That is one dreadful day I will never forget in my life. Dr. G. V. Loganathan was born in 1954, in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. He completed his Bachelor of Engineering at Madras University, India in 1976. He earned his Master of Technology at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur and received his PhD from Purdue University. In 1981, Dr. Loganathan joined Virginia Tech to conduct research and teach in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department. He focused his research in the areas of hydrology and hydraulic networks. It was about 20 years ago while attending an ASCE Conference of the Water Resources Planning and Management Division, that I first met Loganathan in the Water Resources Systems Committee meeting. After the meeting, he came up to me and expressed his interest in water distribution system analysis. At the time, he was a young faculty member at Virginia Te…

¿Cuál es la Enmienda que más importa?
description: Por Charles Peña 2 de junio de 2007 No es ninguna sorpresa que a raíz de la tragedia de Virginia Tech en abril de 2007 en la que 33 personas resultaron muertas, el control de las armas se haya convertido en un tema en la carrera hacia la presidencia de 2008. Después de la matanza indiscriminada, el candidato presidencial demócrata John Edwards de Carolina del Norte pidió más restricciones, mientras que el senador republicano John McCain de Arizona ha dicho que el incidente no lo no lo haría dejar de respaldar los derechos de los propietarios de armas. Y el Instituto Para la Acción Legislativa de la Asociación Nacional del Rifle (NRA es su sigla en inglés) emitió recientemente este comunicado de alerta: "Una audiencia unilateral el martes [10 de mayo de 2007] en el Subcomité sobre Política Doméstica del Comité Para la Supervisión y Reforma Gubernamental de la Cámara de Representantes, presidido por el candidato presidencial con remotas posibilidades Dennis Kucinich (Demócrata de Ohio) [calificado con una "F" por la NRA], fue utilizada por quienes se oponen a las armas como una plataforma para impulsar las mismas, antiguas y trilladas restricciones en contra de ellas". Inevitablemente, el tema de las armas y de su propiedad gira en torno a la Segunda Enmienda (que algunos dirán que está crípticamente redactada): "En consideración a que una milicia bien regulada resulta necesaria para la seguridad de un estado libre, el derecho de la población a poseer y portar armas no será restringido". Por lo tanto—en un sentimiento compartido por muchos propietarios de armas—no resulta sorprendente que Donald Harkrader, un vendedor de armas situado a apenas a unas millas del campo universitario de la Virginia Tech, diría, "Hay una razón por la cual tenemos a la Constitución. Detesto ver que sería de este país sí empezásemos a ignorar a la Constitución". La implicancia es que la Segunda Enmienda es la Constitución, o que es el derecho individual …

¿Por qué SEUNG CHO?
description: Escrito por Cronista en 11:11 AM jueves 19 de abril de 2007 Intento redactar una nota sobre lo ocurrido en Virginia Tech pero no puedo. Me perturba leer los testimonios. Me perturba la fragilidad humana. El punto de quiebre tan variopinto como difícil de entender. No sabré nunca esa respuesta... qué lo llevó a cometer tal masacre. No entiendo la situación, no la asimilo. Intento rearmarme de valor y seguir escudriñando en este entuerto de emociones, de contradicciones, de tristeza y desamparo. Estoy con las víctimas, estoy con los muertos. 33 velas levanto hoy por los muertos y espero, solamente espero que esa sociedad tan violenta como marginadora entienda que el éxito no solo se mide por los triunfos materiales, sino por la correcta convivencia, por el respeto a los demás y por interesarnos despojándonos de la filosofía de que somos más que todos...

‘Era un buen amigo y un ser excepcional’
description: Primo de Ramón Ortiz, víctima en virginia tech, lo recuerda como un joven ejemplar Publicado por Maribel Hastings Corresponsal La Opinión 04-19-2007 Washington, D.C.— Juan Ramón Ortiz Ortiz era un joven ingeniero de 26 años, amante de su familia, de la música, de su carrera. "Ramón era un chico prometedor y un ser humano excepcional que por causas de la vida se le privó de ciertamente ser un ciudadano modelo y ejemplar". Así se expresó Óscar Marrero, primo de Ramón, como le llamaba, un puertorriqueño que el lunes fue una de las víctimas mortales de la matanza de la Universidad virginia tech, a la que asistía junto con su esposa Liselle Vega.

Los padres de Juan Ramón viven en Bayamón. El primo de Juan Ramón, con voz pausada y temblorosa por el dolor de la muerte de su familiar, dijo: "Juan era un muchacho completamente sano, sin ningún tipo de vicios, un muchacho extraordinario y muy aventajado en el área académica, que era un buen amigo, un buen hijo". Y añadió: "Es una pérdida muy grande que todavía no acabamos de entender, y si no la acabamos de entender no la hemos podido asimilar... Y si no la hemos podido asimilar, pues tampoco nos hemos podido reponer". "La familia está devastada. Ha sido un golpe contra la valla. Una situación muy lamentable que no esperábamos", agregó. Juan Ramón estudió ingeniería en la Universidad Politécnica de Puerto Rico. Siempre fue un alumno y un profesional sobresaliente lleno de aspiraciones, afirmó su primo. "No era…
