Wow. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6560685.stm

The company I work for recruits heavily out of VT since the home office is located up the street in Roanoke. Really sad.

it would be nearly impossible for them to put metal detectors on campuses. Too many doors to too many buildings. I dont see that happening. Obviously, Virginia Tech needs to step up their security. Kinda seems odd to me that he shoots someone in the dorms and then opens fires across campus. Shouldnt the school have been evacuating already? I dont know. Just some random thoughts as usual.

no it seemed odd to me that there was a shooting at 8am, and the others were 2 hours later. you'd think they would have put the campus on lockdown after the first shooting...but we're just speculating and armchair QBing right now...
