[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After I read the story of this poor girl at Middlebury who overdosed on campus last fall, I wouldn't consider the school for my kids (and I've had DCs at 2 other NESCAC schools). It seems like a poorly-run place. https://vtdigger.org/2023/12/22/a-students-death-sparks-questions-about-support-services-at-middlebury-college/[/quote] In all fairness, this is a pretty unbalanced article, especially considering that the college can't respond to these allegations due to privacy laws and legal considerations. This was a tough situation all around. [/quote] Agree. I place substantial blame on the student's parent/parents who failed to deal effectively with the student's difficulties--instead leaving it up to a college thousands of miles away to provide parental care and mental health care. Colleges are neither substitute parents nor responsible for serious mental health care.[/quote]
