Students at Baghdad Technology University “hung up a banner to express their solidarity” with the Virginia Tech students:
We, the students of Technology University, denounce the attack at Virginia Tech. We extend our condolences to the families of the victims who faced a situation as bad as Iraq’s universities do. The sanctity of campuses must be protected around the world.
More than 200 university professors have been killed in Iraq in the past few years.
