SRA in Fairfax, Virginia, shows its Hokie Pride



Over 130 employees in two locations of SRA International, a Fairfax Virginia government IT services firm, stepped out in our orange and maroon on April 20th to show our support for the students, families, faculty, and staff of Virginia Tech. Over 130 alumni work at SRA, and many employees have children at Virginia Tech and/or at Westfields HS in Centreville, Virginia.

This tragedy has touched all of us. We want to express our heartfelt condolences for the victims and their families, as well as those who continue to heal from both physical and emotional wounds. We want everyone at VT to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

We also know, as Nikki Giovanni said, that the spirit, hope, and family of the Virginia Tech community will prevail. We've seen as much already, from the stirring spirit in the Convocation ceremony, to the quiet dignity and resolve of the candlelight vigil, to the outpouring of support and hope throughout Virginia and throughout the world.

You are the Hokies. You will prevail. We are behind you.
