- Hello all,
-
- My girlfriend and I were just reading the roommate suicide=Straight As
- thread. Needless to say, we all enjoyed reading everybody else's opinion on
- whether it exists or not.
-
- Here at Ball State University, we have had one suicide (reported) last
- semester, but he was a prof, and we also had a student attempt suicide this
- past semester.
-
- So, the people in the Prof's class had to take it over again. No As
- for them.
-
- The roommate of the student didn't get a 3.5, or at least it wasn't
- given to him.
-
- I, however, believe in the Roommie Suicide=As theory fervently, not
- because some friend of a friend of a friend said another friend of his had
- something happen to his cousin about this. Deep down, don't we all think our
- GPAs need some help? DEep down, don't all roommates get on each other's nerves
- occasionally? Maybe not enough for wishful thinking, though.
