That's sad to hear of a suicide attempt and I hope the author finds peace and stability. With that said, I am firmly of the opinion that it is not the responsibility of an educational institution to change to accommodate people who find an environment too stressful. If one finds it too difficult or stressful and the institution is providing adequate mental health services (which the author acknowledged), you are simply in an environment you should not be in. Go to a college that is more relaxing. You have hundreds of other options that will be much less stressful. Changing Penn to a less stressful environment would not make it Penn anymore. Lots of people thrive at and enjoy Penn. I do not mean to sound harsh - it's simply a reality. It just concerns me that the author acknowledges the school makes him/her suicidal yet is unwilling to leave and lays the blame on the school for his/her suicidal attempts.
