It was with a mix of great sadness and severe frustration that I read about the death of Wharton junior Olivia Kong yesterday. Preliminary reports from SEPTA police confirm that Kong’s death was the result of a suicide. If those reports are accurate, and they seem to be, Kong’s death would be the 10th suicide in the last threeyears of a student attending the University of Pennsylvania. Such numbers are jarring and they should have the administration, faculty, students, parents and alumni on full alert, because there is a crisis at Penn that collectively we are making very little progress in addressing.
