The International Student Blog

We are all extremely saddened and shocked by the events that unfolded on Monday at Virginia Tech University. Certainly an event that we never want to see happen again, and news is emerging that some of those dead are international students. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone at Virginia Tech, and those families who have lost loved ones.
