"Celebrations"

Posted May 15, 2007 | | Amplify

I attended my son's graduation from college yesterday. That should be an unqualified joyous celebration, except my son graduated in engineering from Virginia Tech University, in Blacksburg, Virginia, USA. Twenty-five days earlier, a student killed 32 people on campus and then killed himself (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia_Tech_massacre).
