Title

Lori Haas Speaks at Lie-In

Description

Lori Haas speaks at a student "lie-in" at the far end of the drillfield on April 16, 2008, A Day of Remembrance. Haas' daughter Emily was injured in the shootings at Virginia Tech. Organized by Virginia Tech senior Alison St. Onge, the lie-in was intended as a memorial to the victims and protest against easy access to firearms. Family and friends of the victims spoke at the event before dozens of supporters laid down in silent protest and reflection.
