From Tragedy, Comes Unity

April 16, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I’m sitting in front of the Virginia Tech student union working on an article. An event just ended, one of many, commemorating the students and faculty lives that were lost one year ago today.

Hundreds of people are walking by me, I would say 95% of them are in maroon and orange. Babies and elderly people are here, along with all the students. Some people brought along their dogs.

It is an amazing show of solidarity and community. It’s a sad fact that it is often a tragedy that brings people together.

It’s hard to imagine the chaos that was occurring here one year ago today.
