I am a UPenn student and this is a very timely article. Since the start of January we have had 2 student suicides, one drug related death, and another student death that was totally out of nowhere but still in the same time window. It has left a real black cloud over campus, and there is a tension about whether there will be another incident before the end of the year.
I have not personally needed to seek counseling or any sort of mental health care from the University, but I have not been told any encouraging stories about what I'd get if I needed it. I am in no way saying that the school takes any of the blame for the recent tragedies, but I am worried there is not enough done to prevent the next one.
