Beautiful, high suicide rate, or both?


Cornell does NOT have a higher than normal suicide rate. It gets that reputation because the people who commit suicide there tend to do it in more dramatic ways that make the news because the bridges are there. The suicides by pill overdose at other schools do not make it into the news.


Cornell has the HIGHEST suicide rate.



Source?

Certainly dramatic suicides, but I've never heard the rate is higher than average.

That's a pretty fair ranking, but I think the male female attractiveness component rankings are suspect.

The setting is gorgeous but I have to agree that the buildings are monotonous. To me UCLA is more visually interesting.

Interesting that many of the colleges mentioned in this thread are among the schools with the highest suicide rates and/or ranked most stressful.
