Virginia Tech’s official tribute ribbon logo<br />
remembering the victims of the April 16, 2007<br />
tragedy comes from a student-inspired design.<br />
The logo consists of the well-known maroon<br />
VT athletic logo that symbolizes the innovative and<br />
dynamic nature of Virginia Tech, over an orange<br />
ribbon that is a recognition of the lives lost on April<br />
16 and is a symbol of the prevailing Hokie spirit.<br />
The tribute ribbon appears on athletes’ uniforms<br />
as an inspiration and celebration of the victims’ lives<br />
and the unforgettable mark they left on the Virginia<br />
Tech community, the nation and the world.<br />
