Subject: MORE suggestions for a lesson about the Virginia Tech killings

 Hi.  Last week I prepared an article about the Virginia tech killing and 
the heroism of Prof Librescu.
Those who want to deal with the event at a higher level may be interested in 
the following:

                 Materials for a lesson about Crazed Gunmen Massacres  in 
Schools

The Sniper:  epic song  inspired by  1966 massacre by        Harry Chapin

The Ballad of Charles Whitman: sarcastic ballad about the 1966 massacre 
Kinky Friedman
      ( I have downloaded both these songs without too much difficulty).

 Bowling for Columbine : a movie about the murder of pupils by their peers 
at Columbine High School a few years ago.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bowling for Columbine is a documentary film written, directed, produced by 
and starring Michael Moore. It won numerous awards, including an Academy 
Award for Best Documentary Features, the César Award for Best Foreign 
Film.[1] It received praise as well as criticism for its genre and claims. 
The film opened on October 11, 2002, and it brought Moore international 
attention.

If anyone uses this material, or has more ideas, I'd be happy to hear about 
it.
