It's hard to believe that it has already been more than one month. It is even harder to believe that it actually happened. Things here in Blacksburg feel like normal ... until you pass Norris Hall, or see people still mourning at the memorial on the Drill Field, or go in to Squires Student Center and see the display of the of signs, banners, and mementos that have been sent to Virginia Tech from around the world. I regularly spend time at the coffee shop in Squires and I'm never prepared for the emotions that I feel when I walk in and see the countless thousands of signatures and notes that decorate every inch of each wall. It makes me feel what I felt on that very day. But maybe that's a good thing.
I know that it feels like there is nothing that you can do from where you are, but there is. You can help. If you would like to help us in the process of recovery, please visit our Campus Outreach Virginia website.
