Instructors Say They Were Alarmed by Virginia Tech Gunman's Writings
The Virginia Tech student who committed the worst shooting massacre in U.S. history is described as a silent, troubled person whose writings concerned instructors so much they contacted school officials. The gunman has been identified as 23-year-old Cho Seung-hui, an English major in his final year of undergraduate studies. He came to the United States from South Korea in 1992 with his parents when he was eight years old.
Cho wrote a number of stories and screenplays for creative writing classes filled with scenes of extreme violence and murder.

学校当局说,赵承辉死前留下一张杂乱的纸条,上面列出他对女性、宗教和“富家子弟”等种种不满。联邦调查人员正在搜查赵承辉的笔记和电子邮件,试图找出他为何制造如此惨烈的枪击案的原因。
