This week we lost
friends, colleagues and
students from the drinking
water community. In this

honor their memories.
Personally, I plan to hug my
family even closer and be
grateful for all of the good
things in my
life.--Publisher

From

"It is with great
sorrow that we
inform you that Dr.
G.V. Loganathan, a
long-time ASCE
member and an active
member of EWRI, was
among the victims of
Monday’s tragic
shootings. Also, it
has been confirmed
that eight students
in the Civil and
Environmental
Engineering
Department were
among the victims.
Our thoughts and
prayers go out to
Dr. Loganathan’s
family, students,
colleagues and
friends, as well as
all of those who are
suffering from these
incomprehensible
events.
A number of members
have expressed a
desire to offer
support to the
victims and their
families. As more
definitive
information becomes
available on
memorial services,
funds and other
support efforts,
updates will be
posted on the
EWRI Web site.
Also, anyone wishing
to express their
memories and
thoughts of Dr.
Loganathan, or any
