Subject: Provost Update September 10, 2007
Monday, September 10, 2007
Colleagues,
On behalf of President Charles Steger, I have convened and will chair an ad hoc task force to develop recommendations for the future use of the seven former classrooms on the second floor front wing of Norris Hall. The task force membership includes faculty, staff, students, and administrators who represent broad university interests and are sensitive to the impact of the April 16 tragedy. The charge to the task force is to seek input regarding potential uses of the specified space in Norris Hall, review proposals, and to make recommendations.
The task force is advisory to President Steger as he prepares to finalize a decision about the allocation of space in Norris Hall.
The amount of assignable space is approximately 4,500 sq. ft. The remainder of Norris Hall (approximately 35,000 sq. ft.) is occupied by the College of Engineering programs, and includes academic and administrative offices, laboratories, storage and support facilities, and computer rooms. The specified rooms will not be reassigned to their former use, nor will they be a site for a public memorial or museum commemorating the April 16 tragedy. The task force will consider issues of scope, cost, impact, programmic relationships, the strategic plan, long-term vision, access, security, etc. in considering proposals. Because the rooms under consideration are contiguous with the other spaces, the infrastructure issues and potential uses must take the impact on the entire building into account.
I am pleased to announce that the task force is accepting pre-proposals at this time (one to two pages with an emphasis on ideas and concepts). We welcome and encourage all ideas and proposals. Fully developed proposals (i.e., architectural renderings, cost estimates, etc.) will be requested selectively after initial reviews. When submitting a pre-proposal, please:
* Provide the scope and programmatic relationships of the project;
* Include a single contact person and contact information (e-mail, phone, address).
Submissions must be postmarked or hand-delivered by September 30, 2007. We have already received a number of informal suggestions and we will contact everyone who has already offered ideas. We will also be sending letters to the families of victims. Fax or e-mail submissions will not be accepted. Please mail submissions to:

Las clases se reanudan hoy, aunque el edificio donde fueron asesinadas 30 personas permanecerá cerrada el resto del semestre
Publicado por Servicios La Opinión
04-23-2007
Blacksburg - La universidad de virginia tech, donde hace una semana un estudiante mató a 32 personas y se suicidó, reanudará hoy sus actividades mientras prosiguen las investigaciones y debates en torno al incidente.
Mientras, miles de estudiantes, profesores y demás afectados por la tragedia, tratan de encontrar valor para regresar al campus y volver a la normalidad, acción que fue impulsada ayer por el pastor de la Iglesia Bautista de Blacksburg, cuyo sermón estuvo centrado en la recuperación emocional de los sobrevivientes.
La universidad espera el retorno de la mayorÃa de sus 26 mil estudiantes para la etapa final de los cursos de este año., mientras se completan los funerales de las vÃctimas del estudiante Seung Hui Cho.
"Tenemos que seguir adelante. Haremos todo lo que podamos para reorganizar este sitio e impedir que algo como lo ocurrido vuelva a ocurrir", dijo el portavoz de la universidad, Larry Hincker.
El edificio Norris, donde Cho dio muerte a 30 personas y luego se suicidó, permanecerá cerrado por el resto del semestre., y las autoridades han tomado medidas para aliviar la presencia de los medios de comunicación.
Mientras, el pastor Tommy McDearis exhortó a los feligreses a regresar a sus actividades normales en la universidad de virginia tech luego de la matanza ocurrida en la institución.
McDearis tuvo la penosa tarea de informar el pasado lunes a familiares de más de 20 vÃctimas acerca de la matanza causada por el estudiante surcoreano Seung Hui Cho.
El pastor dijo a la congregación que "si cedemos ante esta situación, y cesamos de hacer todas las cosas que realmente importan en la vida porque hemos sido visitados por la oscuridad, entonces, terminaremos rindiéndonos ante la oscuridad".
El pastor pronunció su sermón mientras los estudiantes que abandonaron virginia tech tras la matanza regresaban al campo universitario.
El pastor contó la experiencia de un profesor que habÃa quedado muy afectado por la muerte de varios de sus estudiantes en Norris Hall.
El profesor dijo que en principio no deseaba retornar. Pero que lo harÃa, para no traicionar los recuerdos, las esperanzas y los sueños de las vÃctimas.
Mientras se aprestaban a reanudar las clases, las autoridades universitarias invitaron a los centenares de periodistas que acamparon en predios de virginia tech, a irse del lugar a más tardar hoy.
La vocera de la universidad, Liz Hart, dijo que las autoridades de virginia tech apreciaban lo que habÃan hecho los periodistas, pero era hora de ir hacia adelante.
"La mejor manera de hacer eso es que la universidad retorne a la normalidad", señaló Hart. © Servicios
