For “Hokie Hope,” an alumni-led declaration of a national “Orange and Maroon Effect” day, I added a few touch of maroon to this blog’s emblematic orange (removed after April 20).
As regular readers know, I started to review higher ed YouTube videos a few months ago.
Before the Virginia Tech Tragedy, the university had started a contest “Let’s go Tubing” to invite its campus members to create YouTube videos to promote the Hokie Spirit.
This morning, I stumbled upon 2 videos by Bryce, the VT student blogger that Joe Hice mentioned in his lessons learned in an earlier post: the first one was his entry for the contest (last updated April 5) and the second one was a moving yet hopeful video uploaded Wednesday:
“What does it mean to be a Hokie” (1’54)
“We are Virginia Tech” (3’03)
