A Virginia Tech: "As strong a place as it has always been"

On April 16 was the worst shooting in US history. A massive shooting spree at the Virginia Tech resulted in 32 dead victims, at least 15 wounded, and one dead student gunman - Seung-Hui Cho from South Korea. It was his final year of college.
In Virginia Tech seven percent of students are international. This year in University there are two thousands foreign students. Most of them are from India, China and South Korea.
One week after the massacre at Virginia Tech classes began again. Foreign students aren’t rejecting admission offers because of the tragedy. It seems as if Virginia Tech is “as strong a place as it has always been”.
