The NY Post has no shame...
A NYU student commited suicide and they have a picture of her falling to her death on the front page. [View image]
And the boyfriend is on xanga & people are leaving some really f-ed up comments.

"At NYU, it's really difficult to make friends. There's no campus life. Everyone is isolated. It can be very lonely."
What a pile of baloney! My girlfriend's cousin goes to NYU and she's got friends all over campus. She's not even that social either. They have a campus life, if you live in the dorms. If you don't then you are totally missing out on the entire NYU social circle. Depression must be dealt with individually. Campus services dont go to you, you go to them. Its the same in any school in NYC.
It's true that its a sad story. It probably escalated to this point after a whole list of problems. I've gone through similar depression stages but never went to the extreme to end my life.

Posted by: Pie at March 11, 2004 11:45 AM*sigh* another look at how the media can reach another low. The poor bf, he probably feels bad enough as it is, and doesn't really need people leaving him messages like that. sheesh
