He also took a prescription medicine. Neither Mr. Aust nor Mr. Grewal knew what the medicine was for, but officials said prescription medications related to the treatment of psychological problems had been found among Mr. Cho’s effects.

This might get interesting.

The drugs affect his brain.

Joe Aust, who shared Room 2121 at Harper Hall with him, said he had spoken to Mr. Cho often but had received only one-word replies. Later, Mr. Aust said, Mr. Cho stopped talking to him entirely. Mr. Aust would sometimes enter the room and find Mr. Cho sitting at his desk, staring into nothingness.

“He was always really, really quiet and kind of weird, keeping to himself all the time,” said Mr. Aust, a 19-year-old sophomore, who, though finding Mr. Cho strange, had not thought him menacing.

Sounds like the ideal roommate to me...

Gunman Showed Signs of Anger

[Herakles]

I’ve been amongst young college students (right out of high school) in their environment for some time now. It seems that their way of climbing their own little social pecking order is by craping and playing back stabbing games like you see on the great social teacher of our time “Survivor”.

Not all are like that and many are decent people and would most likely help others if they knew there was a need. However for someone who is an introvert to start, I imagine not having social contact on an isolated campus can result in a mental break.

This is an environment where young people are thrown together from different parts in the country after going through the rat race of having to do really well on a test and being told the results will determine the rest of their lives. I guess what I am trying to say is that college campuses are really abnormal places that really screw with people mentally. The fact that this guy had been there for such a long time and only one person attempted to speak to him is a window into how messed up these places and education really is.

This is the common thread running through all these killings.

Gee, it must have been the wrong meds. /sarc

Are meds to blame for Cho’s rampage?
Experts say psychiatric drugs linked to school shooting sprees
