Remember the 32



One year ago today the Virginia Tech Community was horrified by the actions of one individual. Words cannot express the deep sadness that I feel for those lost on this date one year ago. I hope that those left behind are able to find peace and know that the entire Hokie Nation grieves with them in the loss of their loved ones.

Please take a moment today to remember those lost on this one year anniversary of the shootings.


"Take time to remember the legacies, remember the dreams and remember the talent that our community has lost. I hope you are inspired to work harder to honor the 32. Share your talents with the world for the 32. Achieve your dreams for the 32. Be more compassionate, friendly and thoughtful for the 32. Be better, for the 32."

words spoken by SGA President Adeel Khan last August at the dedication of the permanent Memorial for the 32 lost on April 16th, 2007
