Virginia Tech Memorial Panel 1B Northern Illinois University received an incredible amount of support from Virginia Tech during our time of grief after the February 14, 2008 shooting. Messages of support were received by the VT offices to our matching NIU offices. Six double sided A-frame panels were placed in VT's Commons for their students to write messages of support to the NIU students. The panels were delivered to NIU in June of 2008, after the semester had already ended. To make these panels available to the students, they were displayed during the events of the first year anniversary of the tragedy. -

MLK Commons Memorial Panel 8 The Regional History Center/University Archives at NIU has the mission of preserving and documenting the history of the university, including those as incomprehensive as the tragic event that occurred on campus on Thursday, February 14, 2008. One way our community helped each other was by writing messages of support on the Memorial Panels that were placed in the Martin Luther King Commons. When the A-frame boards were dismantled, the Message Panels were brought to the Regional History Center/University Archives for permanent preservation. Then the panels were layered in archival tissue, wrapped around archival tubes, and covered with muslin cloth and ties for permanent preservation in the Archives. Originally there were eight panels placed in the Martin Luther King Commons. Due to the weather, two of the panels were removed on March 19, 2008 and blank canvass were installed so additional messages of support could be added. -
