A shooting spree on April 16, at the campus of Virginia Tech University killed 33 people including the gunman, and injured another 26. With the numbers as high as they are, this leaves this school as the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history to date.
Just four days before the eighth anniversary of the Columbine High School shootings, a student shooter struck the campus of Virginia Tech not once, but two times.
Alicia Klein, a junior at Missouri State University can remember the day when a gunman killed 33 people at Virginia Tech. “Being a student on this campus, you feel so safe and like nothing can happen to you,” Klein said. “But when something like this happens, it makes everyone think and scares a lot of people,” she said.
“It was a complete shock to me,” Jeramie Romine, a sophomore at Missouri State University, said. “A school shooting hadn’t happened in such a long time. It made me not want to be on campus,” he said
With students concerned, one has to wonder if the security on the campus of Missouri State University, along with other universities across the country have taken proper precautions in order to protect the lives of its’ students.
