Just for full disclosure, I wasn't close to Fes-Mike, but we lived in the same dorm (New House, I was New House 3, he was Spanish House 2 floors above my room), but we crossed paths a number of times in the halls and he always made time to wave and greet me. I was/am friends with people who were close to him, and the devastation they experienced when we all learned what happened was unforgettable. And to cap it off, some friends and I had to talk a classmate out of committing suicide a little while later. Overall I enjoyed my experience at MIT, but there were a few soul crushing moments in my time.
