At least 32 people were killed at a shooting at Virginia Tech, according to the latest reports. This kind of stuff breaks the hearts of pretty much everyone, especially those of us who work with students.
I don’t know many of the details about the shooting, but I do know that it seems like something like this happens too often. My heart goes out to those involved and to all of those around Virginia Tech. I don’t really know what else to write.

Anyway, what it means to me is that maybe we need to have more silence in our groups when thinking through a problem. I am all for discussion groups, but I also want everyone to contribute. What do you think about this new research?
Amazing Grace: The Movie opens tonight. It’s the story of William Wilberforce, the 18th century antislavery pioneer who worked hard to end slave trade in England.
