10 years after Virginia Tech massacre, education goes on at Norris Hall

10 years after Virginia Tech massacre, education goes on at Norris Hall

BLACKSBURG — It was in Room 206 of Norris Hall that G.V. Loganathan died.

Loganathan, an engineering professor, was teaching a class on advanced hydrology when he was shot to death, one of 32 who died in the April 16, 2007, massacre at Virginia Tech.

Norris Hall, built in 1960 to house the university’s engineering program, holds painful and nightmarish memories for many.

That it’s still in use, that professors still go there every day to teach students, however, is a victory to many close to that day’s tragedy.
