[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good for Katie Meyer spilling coffee on that A-hole! I don’t ever think a University is culpable for a student’s suicidal. But from what I understand, Katie and other athletes are under enormous stress and pressure. The whole system is broken and student athletes are not being served well. Stanford handled this very poorly. Should they be legally liable? I personally don’t think so, but curious to hear more. [/quote] It’s not just student athletes. I think this generation has been brought up to think that life is over if they make a mistake. Yes of course mental illness plays into suicides. Duh. But what is scarier is that adolescent brains don’t process things like adult brains do (over age of 25.). So even a kid who does not show signs of depression can make a rash decision when confronted with what seems like a life ending event. [/quote]
