Hokie Pride


Post blogger Keith Hemstreet observed a constant in this week’s 24/7 broadcast of the massacre in Blacksburg. “This week I’ve spent a few hours watching the coverage of the Virginia Tech incident,” writes Hemstreet. “In those hours spent in front of the television, sickened by the unfathomable horror of the incident itself and the media’s self-serving assault on the people of Blacksburg, I’ve noticed something about the students. The students of Virginia Tech love their university. Nearly every student interviewed following Monday’s massacre was wearing some type of Virginia Tech clothing. Sweatshirts and jackets with “Hokies” printed across the chest, or hats with the recognizable “VT” stitched over the visor. The level of pride these students display says something about the university’s culture. If you are a Hokie, you’re part of a family.”
