Delivering the commencement address at Virginia Tech on Friday, First Lady Michelle Obama commended the student body’s spirit of service in the wake of recent tragedies on the Blacksburg, Va. campus.  

“You have also shown us that through service, we can heal ourselves,” the First Lady told the graduating class.

Virginia Tech was rocked by a shooting that left two dead last December, nearly five years after a 2007 massacre in which 32 people were killed.
