"It was confirmed that among those who lost their lives is one UT student. A child of loving parents. A loyal friend to many. A Longhorn preparing to change the world. It is devastating, and I know all of us are grieved by this horrible news and we will remember her."
"The energy he carried, the joy he spread, and the way he made everyone feel welcome are things we will never forget."
"We're still in the early hours of this investigation. It's a complicated and large crime scene. A number of our students sustained injuries during the attack. Some of these are very serious and we are hoping for the best outcomes, while others are on the path to recovery."
An attack in Austin resulted in multiple casualties and injuries. Among the victims was a Texas Tech student known for spreading joy and making others feel welcome, and a University of Texas graduate student identified as Savitha Shanmugasundaram from LASA High School.
