That's my school and my campus. I was tempted to post this article, but I felt that discussing such a topic would be inconsiderate to the aggrieved party at hand. What is there to possible consider that hasn't already been reported? Are we going to discuss the general issue of suicide or perhaps the invasion of privacy? Regardless, is it fair to discuss such matters in such an abstract and objective fashion when this ultimately ends up being an extremely personal issue? Perhaps it is my proximity to this instance that I am reluctant to advertise this piece of unsavory news any further. When Dharun Ravi becomes someone who I can easily find in five minutes and reach in twenty (email, living quarters, and so forth are accessible to the public) to what extent does the news seem objective, rather than being particularly invasive? It is emotionally boggling to be in proximity of a news piece.
