The silver lining of this COVID-19 pandemic is that my mom got to hood me in our homemade graduation ceremony! My mom who wasn't able to go to school past the 6th grade in Vietnam. The same woman who grew up separated from her own mom, dad & new siblings after the war. #JHU2020

The ceremonial candle was lit for 24 hours at the April 16 memorial. 🧡 Once extinguished at midnight, the candle was carried back into Burruss Hall, to represent our commitment to never forget. 🕯
Thank you for honoring the 32 Hokies today. #VTWeRemember
