To put a proper closing to one of
the most painful weeks in George Mason’s history, scores of students and
teachers gathered in the gym today to finish signing the message boards
for Jessica Szymanski and Dana Wood, two graduates of the Class of 2002
who died tragically this past Tuesday in a car crash as they were returning
to their college in North Carolina.
Emotions ran high as dozens of members
of the Class of 2002, most of whom came from long distances, were reunited
in a manner they wished had never happened.
Amid the silence punctuated only
by sobs, the students carefully cut out the literally hundreds of poems
and messages written over the past few days and gently, almost reverentially,
placed them in memory scrapbooks for later presentation to the girls’ families. |
