I work at a large, Midwestern university, and everyone is in complete shock about the tragedy at Virginia Tech. Students are crowded around computers and televisions trying to get the most recent information. This hits a little too close to home for our students, faculty and staff. This is so unfair. Thoughts and prayers for the entire VT campus, community and all of those who are affected by this horrible event.

I'm pretty sure all of the Delta Gamma sisters are safe also. My cousin said all of her friends were okay, so I'm assuming that includes her sisters.

Unhappy

this is so awful, the moment i heard i messaged my brother, because as luck would have it, two weeks ago the phi psi chapter at vtech took a road trip to his chapter. they had a blast, and he was really excited about all the new friends he'd made. now he's waiting for them to message back to tell him they're safe.

thoughts and prayers go out to everyone, vtech students, people who have friends at vtech, everyone. this is horrendous.

my entire class was in shock when they heard. and the pictures are horrendous.

Not making light of the situation, but CNN online headline currently reads "VIGINIA MASSACRE"...I mean, if you're going to make a big bold headline, spell the state correctly.

They've changed it, I imagined they wouldn't let that go for long.

update: my brother says the phi psis he knows are fine, they haven't heard back about the whole chapter yet, but he hasn't heard anything back.

33...nothing could merit this reaction.

glad all those who have reported about chapters so far have confirmation their brothers and sisters are safe.

Delta Gammas are all safe, and so is the Tri-Delta chapter.

I'm still waiting to hear about several family friends. Virginia Tech is so close by; nearly half of my graduating class from high school attended Tech. While they have all graduated, many of them have siblings. This is just awful.

I have heard from other sisters that some pi phis were shot in norris hall, but are ok. I don't want to go too much into detail on this of course.

Emails have been getting passed back and forth between chapter members with various alum. Its all really still unfolding so more may come out. It makes me just terribly saddened that this could happen to my campus.

Just saw the update on our national website. I'm so glad they are safe and pray for the families of those injured or killed.

The AGD website states that all but one sister are accounted for but they believe that she is assisting with the rescue efforts.

ADPi still has sisters unaccounted for according to their national website.

Alpha Phi has accounted for all its members.

All TriDelta's and DG's are safe as well.

I've been worried about my Alpha Gam sisters as well as their families and those who were killed, wounded or otherwise affected.

Tonight my chapter is having the 1st ceremony for Initiation Week; we will be saying a special prayer for the Va. Tech campus.
