In the five years I was at college (yes - five, and I didn't hang myself!) - each year we had a suicide - with grades being a large (all?) part of the reason. It was a top-notch engineering school (and small). The kids coming had all done great in High School. I remember one kid in my dorm was all upset the first time he got a "B"!
The one way to look at it was "C" for Credit and "D" for Diploma to keep yourself from getting too depressed!
When I was completing my engineering courses, there was a case of one of my classmates committing suicide...But he did not commit suicide on the college campus.. He went home during the holidays and hanged himself...There was speculation that he was HIV+ . You never know what happened and why??Only the person in the situation and 'Go#' knows it....Let's cut him some slack and those who wan to laugh go right ahread....He is dead anyway...
