We remember Dr. Liviu Librescu (1930-2007)


Liviu Librescu - Wikipedia

We remember Professor Liviu Librescu who became a national hero during the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007.      He blocked the door so that his students could escape to safety, a great act of bravery.

Professor Librescu was born in Romania on this day in 1930.  As a boy, he saw the evils of the Holocaust and later lived under communism.   He came to the US in 1978.

What a great man and hero.
