Orange and Maroon Effect this FRIDAY!

[Todd&Copper]

I am sorry if another thread has been started about this, but my DSis is a Tech alum and took engineering classes with one of the professors who was killed Monday.

Spread the Word - Orange and Maroon Effect

Virginia Tech family members across the country 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 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 for your participation and support!

I don't have any of those colors so last night I went out and bought maroon and orange ribbon. I printed the VT logo on card stock and made some nice pins for some of the folks in my office. People were coming by my desk asking to buy some....I was actually giving them away, but ran out of ribbon. We have a lot of Tech families in our office so I am sure we will see a lot of orange and maroon.
