I really didn't want to bring it up - but it's just such a terrible shame about VT. My brother graduated from VT in 2004, and we were all there in 2003. It's got one of the most beautiful campuses I've seen - we strolled around for what seems like hours, amidst maples, pines, duckponds and beautiful architecture. It was a 45 minute drive from a bed and breakfast in Roanoke - and Blacksburg was so quiet, so tame - not like the America you picture in your head when you're seventeen. But VT was like a little town in itself. A very pretty town at that, with students lying about on the grass with their books, laptops and music, very much like those university brochures you find in the libraries. It all seems too surreal to be true. Wish you well Hokies.
