Opis

On April 16, 2007, the worst and deadliest shooting in American modern history shattered the peaceful Virginia Tech Institute campus. Mentally ill, not willing to be treated voluntarily, and presenting an imminent danger to self and others, Seung-Hui Cho murdered 32 innocent people, and wounded 17 others. Days after the shooting, Professor Cloyd, father of a victim, emailed his students: "If we don't meet again, your final assignment from me is perhaps the most important lesson you will learn in life. Go to your mother, father, brothers and sisters and tell them with all your heart how much you love them. And tell them that you know how much they love you, too. Go out of your way to make good memories... At some point these memories may be all you have left." For the rest of our lives, the bloodshed at Virginia Tech would remain in our grieving hearts. We owe the victims to always remember, and enact the necessary measures to protect our children, family members, and friends. This book presents the events leading to that fatal Monday morning, details the shootings, and discusses what we can do, today, to prevent future tragedies.
