RoadDog Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 The shootings at Northern Illinois University Valentine's Day took place about a quarter mile off the Lincoln Highway. Five students were killed by a deranged former student. Both Liz and I graduated from Northern in 1973, so it has hit us hard. We took a trip out to Dekalb yesterday and I blogged about it in three entries. If you'd like to see our experience, go to http://downdaroadigo.blogspot.com There is also a major discussion as to what to do with Cole Hall, where the shootings occurred. Some want it torn down and turned into a park. I think the actions of one deranged person shouldn't cause eduaction to stop. The hall should remain, but probably a name-change is order as well as a memorial inside and outside of it. Why Must These Things Happen?
