The Hokie Bird came by our table yesterday to say hi and strike a pose in front of some of our cameras. Thanks to everyone that came out and stopped by to talk to us!

Earthquake Damage? Not Quite.

While it may not be in the best shape, this Collegiate Times box did not sustain its damage during the earthquake that was felt on Virginia Tech campus on Tuesday. It certainly made for a humorous photo, though.

It seems the Cadets of Brodie Hall have figured out a standardized solution for keeping their rooms cool.

Hokie Hi Picnic

Students lined up around the block from Lane Stadium all the way to Cassell Coliseum. Once the gates opened up, freshman walked through the tunnel onto Worsham field, touching the Hokie Stone above the doorway, as all the players do before each game. Once onto the field, the students were met by the cheerleaders, orientation staff, Hokie camp counselors, and the High Techs dance team. After taking the traditional walk across the field, the students went to the concourse and received free food catered by the dining halls. After taking as much pulled pork, hamburgers, hotdogs, and other picnic standards as they desired, the students went into the stands to watch performances by the Marching Virginians, the cheerleaders, and the High Techs. The picnic concluded with introductions by the Women’s volleyball, women’s basketball, men’s basketball, men’s soccer, and football teams.
