Country Mourns for Victims at Virgina Tech

A day of mourning took place Friday in the state of Virginia after Cho Seung-Hui took 32 Virginia Tech's students' lives, and a faculty member's life as well this past Monday. According to The New York Times, the Governor declared Friday an official day of mourning and vigils will be held across the state in different forms.

According to CNN.com, students gathered around a memorial on the Virginia Tech Drill Field to honor the victims.
