Students from all over the world are Hokies today.
Students are joining a Facebook group at the rate of about 1000 every 5 minutes. The group stands at 126,000 at 1:50pm.
They are "wearing the colors" of Virginia Tech today using images like the ones above. There are over 500 pictures now with "Today, we are all Hokies" showing Virginia Tech combined with the emblems of hundreds of schools around the country.
There are 1000's of messages posted, here are just a few of the schools represented in a 5 minute period posting messages. The University of Toronto, St. Lawrence, St Andrews, WVU, Edinboro, Rutgers, MSU Bozeman, Niagara University, Southwest Baptist, UMass Lowell, FSU, Ohio State, GA Southern, Central Piedmont, Berkeley, and many from high school students as well.
Facebook is a social networking website originally exclusively for college students now open to anyone.
