A kid at my old university in New York killed himself on the same day.  Have any of you heard of that one? Fordham university in New York, really sad too.  :(


I go there now. He killed himself over a bad grade.


U r kidding me, right?

I really wish I was. He was pre-med and they say the pressure got to him. I feel bad for his roommate who walked in on him hanging from the ceiling.

Dude, ur in alumni south?  That's where it was right?  What year are you?  Also I was in pre-med, and now in med school.  I know the pressure, but to resort to that......damn.


Nah I commute. I have friends who live in alumni south but I spend most of my time in Loschert (alumni north). Yeah I'm an English major so I don't know what it's like to be pre-med but all my friends who are say it is hell.

I saw the ambulances take him away before I knew what happened.  Other than 1 professor not many people brought it up.

Off-topic: How did you like Fordham? I've been going to the campus consistently since I was 12 so I'm sort of jaded going there now. Which bar was your favorite?

Jeez, that's nuts, my girlfriend still goes there and she was telling me, she found out pretty early.  I really liked the school and the campus, but I was a little hesitant to go out in my first year, I'll be honest lol.  I live in Staten Island (the forgotten borough lmao) and I knew it was kind of dangerous.  Fordham was great, aside from some crappy internet in the dorms once in a while.  Why since you were 12? 

Me and my friends use to go to Tinkers a lot, especially in junior year.  It wasn't anything special I guess, but most people that go there are studentsand its usually got a good crowd.  Great times (I just graduated last year lol).  Also, we started going to Mugzys a little more in Senior year, also cool but not too many spots to sit.  Standing in a packed house gets annoying fast.  Also, Howl's is cool, great food and that one has more dancing, if ya like that.  Good place to watch a game earlier in the day too.  But yeah, probably Tinker's most  :) .  You a freshman? Junior? 

Also, the food is amazing in some places around there.  Little Italy being right there is awesome.  Good restaurants, I can recommend some if youd like haha.
