[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This may need a trigger warning as I know self harm is a sensitive subject.

I mentioned to someone that my DC was applying to several state engineering programs - Penn state, NC State, Ga Tech, Va Tech, Clemson, etc. They mentioned that one particular school on his list was known to have a depressing program and had a high incident of student s**cide - “as many as 6 already this year.”

Where can I find out statistics related to this? I know this is not normally publicized to the general public and I know the schools especially aren’t  going to volunteer this info. I am curious for all schools - to find out if this is true that one school is an outlier or whether it’s an unfortunate reality and most schools have similar numbers. There is so much to consider as he narrows down his options and this is the last thing I want to bring into his research…. and it may not even matter as much in his final decision.[/quote]

I really hope this is not accurate.  [/quote]
