A year after Virginia Tech, sharper focus on troubled students
April 16. The date of Virginia Tech's tragedy resonates for campus leaders the way Sept. 11 does for the nation. The fatal shootings of 33 students and faculty there a year ago have put colleges and universities on high alert for potentially troubled students. On many campuses, that means more support is available. But the incident has also caused a reaction in some places that mental-health professionals view with concern.
