Virginia Tech Probe Finds No Fault in Massacre Response

CNN reports that an internal Virginia Tech review has recommendations for improving security but finds no blame among university staff for the events on the day of the massacre earlier this year. An independent group headed by former Virginia Governor Tim Kaine will release its own report soon. Virginia Tech's own coverage of the report can be read here, and the full report can be downloaded here (PDF).
The report was requested by Virginia Tech President Charles Steger. It was released Wednesday and includes reviews of the university's security systems, communications and counseling services that dealt with at-risk students.

It recommends many improvements -- ranging from locks on classroom doors to overhauling the campus communications system -- but doesn't fault any university or police officials for the way they handled the massacre.
