Virginia Tech Marks Five-Year Anniversary of Mass Shooting


Five years to the day after a mentally ill student gunned down 32 people at Virginia Tech, the university held classes for the first time on the anniversary of that event.

Officials said resuming classes on the anniversary of the April 16, 2007, rampage was another way to honor the students and faculty who perished that day.

Freshman Jessie McNamara wasn't on campus at the time, but remembered the moment the shooting occurred. Two girls from her high school were victims.

"It was really hard, but we got through it," she said, her voice choking with emotion.

Though she thinks of the shooting every time she passes the April 16 Memorial on the VT campus, the freshman said she feels secure at the school.

"I feel 100 percent safe," she said, adding that anniversary events such as vigils reinforce the huge community support system available to students.

Virginia Tech also marked the five-year anniversary at midnight this morning with the lighting of a ceremonial candle that will remain lit for 24 hours.

Members of the university's Corps of Cadets stood guard at the candle for 32 minutes and will do so again Monday night before it is extinguished.

Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is scheduled to speak at a commemoration and candlelight vigil on Monday night at the campus in Blacksburg, Va.

'Jersey Shore' Star Vinny Tells All In 'Control The Crazy' Book

'It's a perfect opportunity to help people now,' Vinny tells MTV News about his book, which chronicles the star's battle with anxiety.

"Jersey Shore" fans saw a different side of Vinny Guadagnino during season five, when he opened up his life-long battle with clinical anxiety and temporarily left the show. Now, he's opening up even more in his tell-all book, "Control the Crazy: My Plan to Stop Stressing, Avoid Drama, and Maintain Inner Cool," in stores Tuesday.

The book reveals why he decided to go public with his disorder and includes tips on how to fight anxiety. Vinny talked to MTV News on Monday (April 16) about the flood of support he has received how surprised he was when he realized he had become a role model.

"Every day people were like, 'Thank you, thank you for putting light on this,' " Vinny told MTV News on Monday (April 16). "Cause it's embarrassing a little bit, because it's a fearful thing, you don't know what the hell is happening."

Vinny said "Control the Crazy" is his way of sharing his struggles so that other people can overcome anxiety.

"This has always been something I developed for myself and I always said one day I want to share this with people. I don't know when I'm going to have the courage to come out and say like, 'Guys, I get stressed out a lot,' because you don't want to admit that stuff," Vinny said. "I didn't have to make that decision because obviously I went through it on the 'Jersey Shore' and everybody saw it, so once that happened was like, 'You know what? It's a perfect opportunity to help people now.' "

And Vinny is the first to admit that even though he returned to finish filming last season, his short break at home wasn't enough time away to control his anxiety.

"Those five days were nothing," Vinny said of his time back home in Staten Island. "I was in a really bad place and five days isn't gonna do it, especially to go back in that. I needed two months of sleep."

Yet, Vinny doesn't regret going back to Seaside to end the summer with his "Jersey Shore" housemates.

"Part of healing and going through life in general is getting through tough things," Vinny said. "No matter how tough it was — I don't care if it was the worst experience of my life at the time — getting through it is an accomplishment."

Vinny will be back with the rest of the "Jersey Shore" crew, including what will be a very pregnant Snooki, for season six, which begins filming this summer in Seaside.

"I'm ready," Vinny said about getting back to the boardwalk. "I just have to keep working on my program, gotta eat right, stay healthy and just have fun."
