[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It appears that the prevalence of suicide at colleges is correlated with prestige. [b]T50 ones appear to have far more suicides[/b].[/quote] Where is there any proof whatsoever for that? A few years ago there was a report that surveyed 100 prominent schools and found that over half did not track or report suicides. How are you going to draw conclusions from those schools? [/quote] Agree. Many schools do not track this metric, plus it also does not track factors like: attempted suicides, other "deaths of despair" like overdoses, or students who drop out or go on leave and commit suicide shortly after they drop out or go on leave.[/quote]
