just a correspondence from my profs at VT -
" Thank you for asking; fortunately my family and I are fine. My
father's office is in the building of the shootings, but he did not
go into the office today. I am actually out of town and not
returning to Blacksburg until tomorrow -- I can't say that I am
looking forward to returning. A truly awful day."
"Thanks for checking. I am okay. The shootings were in Norris Hall,
which is not far from Torgersen and which houses the offices for the
dean of engineering. I've heard from nearly everyone in the e-textiles
lab, and they are all fine. But since the dean's offices are there and
the classrooms are used for engineering classes, I am very afraid that
some of the victims may be students or colleagues of mine. "
On a side note - condolences for atleast one sister who did not survive. Inna lillahe wa inna ilayhe rajeoon.
