2:43 p.m., April 19, 2007--Members of the University of Delaware community are encouraged to honor those killed in the tragic events at Virginia Tech by participating in an “Orange and Maroon Effect” day on Friday, April 20.

Participants are invited to wear orange and maroon to show their support for the families of those who were lost in the events of April 16 and to support the Virginia Tech community.

Orange and Maroon Effect was born several years ago as an invitation to Tech fans to wear the school's colors to athletic events.
