Hokie Colors: Orange and Maroon

April 16, 2008 · Leave a Comment

From 5 p.m., again, internet woes….

I experienced broadcast journalism at its finest this afternoon and it is definitely very different from print. I have a new respect for broadcast journalists because the ability to think on your feet so quickly is impressive. I met some people from CBS who were very friendly and who helped to prep me. I was extremely nervous and stumbled a bit (OK, I said the wrong school colors), but in the end, it was a good experience. Hey, everyone has to start somewhere.

Our trip is coming to a close soon as we finish editing and writing everything. Tonight, we will attend the candlelit vigil. I’ve been so busy today I have hardly realized how sad this event will be. I can’t even fathom how hard it will be for the students and family members here who lost loved ones. I’m only beginning to skim the surface of understanding their pain and anger at their losses. My heart goes out to the Hokies.
