I applaud you for saying this, angelic1. I wish more Tech students would speak up, because I'm sure you can't be the only one who feels this way.

Regarding the young woman who lived through Columbine and now this; she impressed me beyond belief. She was amazingly composed, and seemed to be emotionally stronger than I could ever imagine.

I'm so upset with the way the media is handling the coverage of this. Even the name they've given this (Virginia Tech Massacre) implies that the university is somehow at fault, when I don't believe it is. I really wish the media would focus on the positives at this point (the sense of community, the camaraderie, the survivors, etc.) instead of the negatives (letting the killer get his last word in by airing his tape, blaming the university, etc.)
