On April 16, 2007, Seung-Hui Cho, a 23-year-old college student, shocked the nation when he perpetrated the deadliest shooting massacre in U.S. history. The violent rampage took place on the Virginia Tech University campus in Blacksburg, Virginia, where Cho was a senior majoring in English. Before turning the gun on himself and delivering a fatal gunshot to the head, Cho murdered more than 30 of his classmates and University faculty; numerous others were injured. In a strange twist, several days

Ecological Systems Theory can be applied to this situation very easily. Basically, this system describes the impact that each of the five environmental systems (micro, meso, exo, macro, and chrono) has on the individual. In the case of the Virginia Tech shooting, the micro and macro systems most directly apply (Bronfenbrenner, 1994). The strongest influences in this event lie within the microsystem, specifically in regards to mental health and personal support systems. It is widely known that a

In his essay, “How Not to Respond to Virginia Tech-II”, write Brett A. Sokolow uses the campus shooting at Virginia Tech to expose a serious problem, mental health. He tells readers where their focus needs to be shifted. He has two goals: to misconfigure the idea that campus safety is at risk, and to bring forth the issue of mental health. By breaking down proposed campus safety ideas, asking rhetorical questions, and reiterating his main message, Sokolow effectively convinces college universities

The Columbine Shooting and Virginia Tech. shooting were called similar in various ways. They were both declared a national tragedy 13 people killed total in the Columbine and 33 in the Virginia Tech shooting. Though the two incidents were similarly done by psychopaths, there were differences in the details of both shootings, the reactions of society, and upcoming psychological development. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were responsible for the 13 deaths during the Columbine Shooting on April 20

• What is your reason for choosing Texas Tech? Senior year is such a busy, long, and stressful school. On top of all that is deciding which college you would want to attend and the process to get into whatever school you choose. Personally, ever since I was young, I was kind of obligated to attend Texas Tech by my relatives. Being that I was born in the small town of Brownfield, Texas and most of my family is from there, they made frequent trips to Lubbock being that it was only forty-five minutes

In this paper I will be discussing and contrasting the differences between Prairie Style architecture and Hi-tech architecture. We will go over the origin, the years it was used, the main components and characteristics, some of the architects that used these design types, a few real=-world examples, and we will compare them. Prairie School was a late 19th- and early 20th-century architectural style, most common to the Midwestern United States. The style is usually marked by horizontal lines, flat

“I fear for my life and the lives of others on campus. I do not believe that this student is mentally sound” (Hoeft). Life is a precious thing; one may not realize how important it is until they are faced with a threat on their mortality. More than thirty of Virginia Tech’s students were faced with that mortality on April 16, 2007, when Seung-Hui Cho murdered them with two semiautomatic handguns, and then he killed himself. Many problems lead to this unfortunate event, and many people seem to blame

and the Virginia Tech University shooting, they followed different and similar situations. When these events occurred they both reached the record of worst mass shootings in U.S. history. On April 20, 1999, the Columbine shooting occurred early morning in which most of the students had already filled the school. The columbine shooters intentions to murder the students at the school were pre-meditated and were determined to destroy as much lives as possible. As for the Virginia tech shooting, it occurred

aspects of customer service for computers — problem solved, phone wait time, and the quality of phone and online support staffs — Consumer Reports subscribers gave Apple the highest marks among the top computer vendors for both laptop and desktop tech support. Apple was the only company to earn top scores in all four categories”(2). Aside from Apple striving to be the most innovative computer and electronic device manufacturer, they also out do themselves when it comes to customer service, which

Most I/O devices interface to the CPU in a fashion quite similar to memory. Indeed, many devices appear to the CPU as though they were memory devices. To output data to the outside world the CPU simply stores data into a "memory" location and the data magically appears on some connectors external to the computer. Similarly, to input data from some external device, the CPU simply transfers data from a "memory" location into the CPU; this "memory" location holds the value found on the pins of some
