The NIU Tragedy
****

Hi, everybody.

What a tragic day yesterday. You know, I never thought one of the few visits back to my alma mater would be in a helicopter, watching such a terrible event unfold.

My best goes out to everyone at NIU, especially to those closest to the victims.

While I was flying yesterday though, it was difficult for me to feel anything. The news has a terrible way of desensitizing a person, especially when you see the unedited version on a day-to-day basis. Everything that I saw yesterday is now starting to sink in though... I had many classes in Cole Hall while I was at NIU.

Anyway... I hope that everyone sticks together to help everyone heal. Have a great weekend everyone.
