Blacksburg = Safety
Even after the two, separated and unrelated events where gunmen have killed others and themselves within the last decade, I would still say that Virginia Tech is a very safe school. All over campus, you can find the Emergency Call Booths, and (although some may find this annoying) there always seems to be a Cop just around the corner. I often see sobriety check points on the weekends and I have never heard of someone dying from a drunk driving incident on or anywhere near our campus. You see someone in uniform almost every day and reflecting on all of these safety/security measures makes me feel like the school really cares about protecting its students.
