DEKALB, Ill. _ It's not violence that Northern Illinois University senior Kristen Bortolotti fears when classes resume _ it's the memories. "It's not necessarily that we're scared that there's going to be someone with a gun," said the 24-year-old from Elgin. "It's the memories of what we saw." Classes were to begin Monday for the first time since the Feb. 14 shootings, in which former NIU graduate student Steve Kazmierczak opened fire on students _ killing five and wounding 17 _ before committing suicide.
