White House Press Briefing by Dana Perino 4/18/07 (Virginia Tech)
— Wednesday, April 18, 2007 — Goyal. Q Two quick questions. One, as far as the school shooting is concerned, my heart goes out and my condolence for the families. MS. PERINO: Absolutely. Q -- in fact, from Washington to New Delhi, because among the dead at least one Indian student and also a professor from India. MS. PERINO: Yes, professor. Q My question is that now there's a feel among the students not only here, but across the globe, including in India, those who want to come for the higher education here. What do you think the President will have a message for them now? MS. PERINO: I know Sean McCormack got asked this question yesterday at the State Department, and I think it's one that not only people around the world are asking, but I'm sure that parents who are encouraging their children to go to college, and that they have it on their minds, too. Again, I would just try to assure that there people who are working very hard to make sure that places are safe. Unfortunately, there are individuals who, if they are determined to perpetuate violence and to kill people, that they have ways of doing that. And as the facts unfold in this case, we're just learning a lot more about this individual's background and behavior.
