Virginia Tech, My Alma Mater

By bcohen on April 19, 2007.

While everyone decides the best way they can deal with the mass murder this week, I'll point only to this commentary in the Chronicle yesterday that I found well put. It's by an author whose written about the Texas 1966 murders.

I lived a good percentage of my life in Blacksburg (as recently as 2005) and won't go on about that here. Thanks to those bloggers, though, who've tried to provide observations and insight with dignity and respect. (And to the Mungers for this compilation page.)

Thanks for posting that link - I had not yet happened to stumble upon this article. Speaking as someone who is close to the tragedy, I think Lavergne is for the most part spot on.
