This blog, "On the scene," which has chronicled happenings on the sprawling campus in Blacksburg, Va., in the wake of Monday’s massacre, is being retired as MSNBC.com’s coverage shifts away from the scene of the crime to the investigation and the issues raised by the attacks.
We will continue to offer complete coverage of the Virginia Tech tragedy and the healing of the Hokie Nation in our news reports and will post a representative sample of readers’ comments on existing posts through Friday, April 27.

As officials, students and families struggle to come to terms with the tragedy at Virginia Tech, a team of MSNBC.com reporters and editors and NBC News producers and correspondents is on the scene.
We are surprised that Pres. Seger has yet to be fired or has not resigned over his incompetency to block all 5 entrances to the College with city, county and state police immediately AFTER the two dorm killings around 7:30 a.m. in order to warn students and professors going to classes that a killer had NOT yet been apprehended on campus. Cho, the killer, was allowed to come back on campus to kill more than 30 more innocent students and professors. Pres. Seger obviously did NOT want any more BAD press after the bungling of the two previous bomb scares and the murder of the security officer on campus the year before! Wake up everyone as to who is to blame for the lack of basic security, and stop covering for the inept administration of VA TECH, who did NOT even have security cameras or a speaker system in place to warn each building on campus of a loose killer????
Pres. Seger, whose salary and benifits are well over $600,000 wins the prize of being the most incompetent, highly paid college president in America!!!
