Orange and Maroon Effect Day

Everyone please try to wear orange or maroon tomorrow, 4/20/07, in remembrance of the fallen and injured here at Virginia Tech.

*Even if you don't have orange or maroon in your wardrobe, you could wear a ribbon, even draw an orange "VT" mark on your hand with a marker.

Virginia Tech family members across the country and the world have united to declare this Friday, April 20th, an "Orange and Maroon Effect" day to honor those killed in the tragic events on campus Monday, and to show support for Virginia Tech students, faculty, administrators, staff, alumni, and friends. "Orange and Maroon Effect" was born several years ago as an invitation to Tech fans to wear orange and maroon to Virginia Tech athletic events. We invite everyone from all over the country and the world to be a part of the Virginia Tech family this Friday, to wear orange and maroon to support the families of those who were lost, and to support the school and community we all love so much.

Thank you all for your concern, sympathy, and support for the Virginia Tech community.

I'm trying to find something maroon and orange to at least wrap it as a ribbon on my car. Don't have either colored shirts...

It's so sad
