Title: Eight student deaths confirmed
Post by: XBAMA on April 29, 2011, 12:33:57 PM
As of approximately noon Friday, The Crimson White has confirmed at least eight student deaths. While we do have a list of the deceased students, some families have requested that we keep their names private until they have had time to contact friends and extended family members. When it becomes appropriate, we will publish those names.

So sad...  I haven't been to Tusc since I left work Wednesday.  Watching the stories and seeing the pics is heartbreaking.

Thinking of how close it came to where I would be if the school hadn't called and told me my youngest son had fallen and possibly broken his arm is scary.  (no fracture)  I left University Medical Center (on campus and adjacent to DCH Regional Med Center) at 1015 that morning.  I was home watching the Monster roar toward campus on TV.

Prayers to everyone affected.
