How
Can we destigmatize mental illness when we can't even openly acknowledge suicide when it happens?
Can we not rush to conclusions?
From the report, it sounds like he was beaten before he appeared acting strangely in the classroom. His confused state might have led him to accidentally fall. Calling this a suicide is premature.
The whole thing sounds absolutely grotesque!
Sorry to hear about the student's death. My condolences go to his friends and loved ones, despite my not having known the deceased student personally.
See Something do Nothing
According to the report the poor kid entered a classroom bloodied and beaten mumbled something to the professor and staggered out of the class and not one student came to his aid very strange.
The article is a little jumbled, but it says this
Wrong
According to the report, two students followed him out of the classroom offering help.
It sounds like we don't have the full story yet.
How sad for this young man and his friends and family and for anyone who witnessed this tragedy.
Yes, not one. Two.
The report does not say how he happened to fall, so we can't say no one was coming to his aid.
Interesting timing
That guy that went into the water was just a year ago - almost to the day.

Treated as a "non-homicide," but not treated as an "accident." The suggestion this may also have been a suicide.
