According to Associated Press, a Korean exchange student at Auburn University in Alabama was beaten up by four men on the 19th at his dorm, three days after the Virginia Tech shooting. FBI is currently investigating whether it was hate-motivated. The Korean student was not wounded very seriously.
Given that the exchange student has only been in the country for a month, it seems likely that it was a hate crime. The Korean is not sure if he should be outraged, or be thankful that it is the only reported case of hate crime after the shooting.
