Virginia Tech student newspaper’s multimedia coverage

Steve Safran April 18th, 2007

The Collegiate Times, the student newspaper at Virginia Tech, has been covering the shootings using the very model of online reporting. It has blog-style reports as confusion still reigns amid false alarms, video of the scene on campus, a Flash picture gallery, opinion and many other features. These are students - in the middle of the story, who could be forgiven for putting all student projects on hold. Yet there they are - creating professional-quality journalism.

    I’m a Wake Forest graduate. For years, Virginia Tech has been a tough rival and worthy athletic opponent. Often, I wished you weren’t so tough. i’m a Deacon.

    For the last several days, watching and often crying, I felt like, “I’m a Hokie, Too”. I think today, the entire nation are Hokies. God bless the families of the fallen and all your students. May they find peace and comfort.. Let’s work for a less violent world everywhere.
