MICHIGAN DAILY

ANN ARBOR. Mich. — Remembering
her vivid imagination, sense of humor and
love of life. hundreds of friends and family
attended services yesterday for LSA first-
year student Courtney Cantor, who died
Friday morning after falling from her
sixth-floor residence hall window.

Investigators suspect that Cantor. whose
body was found near the loading dock of
Mary Markley Residence Hall at about 5 a.m.
Friday. might have fallen from the ladder of
her loft while climbing into bed.

“She had a sparkle that drew people to
her," Rabbi Harold Loss said during yester-
day‘s service at Ira Kaufman chapel in
Southfield. Mich. “She taught us lessons
about living. caring for each other and be-
ing there for each other."

The 18-year-old Chi Omega pledge
from West Bloomfield. Mich. attended car-
ry-in ceremonies at the sorority Thursday
night. She then went to a party at the Phi
Delta Theta fraternity. where she was
seen drinking alcohol. She returned to
Markley in a cab with three friends at
about 3 am.

Cantor‘s roommate, LSA first-year stu-
dent Marni Golden, saw her in the room af-
ter Cantor returned from the party. Golden
left the room once between 3 am. and 5
am. to go to the bathroom. Cantor. found
in her nightshirt. was taken to University
Hospitals Emergency Room and pro-

Suicides have Ivys worried

Student deaths have many concerned about
the mental strain put on Ivy Leaguers

By Chris Farrell

DAILV PRINCETONIAN

PRINCETON. N.J. —— In re-
cent weeks, the issue of suicide
on college campuses has at
tracted the attention of many
Ivy League schools.

Within a five-week period.
three Ivy League students com-
mitted suicide and a fourth at-
tempted to do so.

Hyun Joon “Brian" Cho,
a third-year graduate student
at Cornell University. was
found dead in his apartment
Aug. 28. Four weeks later.
Shirley Yoon. a senior at C0-
lumbia University jumped to
her death from a 20th~floor
window Sept. 23. Two days

later. Darren Pascual. 3 Co
lumbia junior on semester
leave. hanged himself in his
Long Island home. Most re-
cently, Eric Peel. also a C0-
lumbia junior. stabbed him-
self twice in the chest Oct. 5.
but survived.

In response to these recent
suicides and suicide attempts at
other colleges, Princeton is
highlighting the importance of
counseling and support groups
on campus.

“McCosh Health Center‘s
counseling center is open to all
students." said Dr. Marvin
Geller, director and senior clin-
ical psychologist at McCosh. He
added that the only times the
center closes are Winter Break

and summer vacation.

The center offers each stu-
dent 10 free sessions and a 24-
hour emergency service, which
are covered by the student‘s
health plan. Geller said. When
necessary, counselors at the
center will make outside refer-
rals. he added.

The counseling center is in-
volved in the RA training
process. and keeps a working
relationship with them during
the year. In addition. the RAs.
as well as faculty and cleans,
can refer students to the center,
“though the largest percent (of
students who utilize the center)
say they are self-referred."
Geller explained.

About 850 to 900 students
use the counseling service each
year. Geller said.

Other Ivy League schools
employ similar methods to
combat the causes of student

suicide. Dr. Philip Meilman.
director of Counseling and
Psychological Services at Cor-
nell. explained that the ser-
vice provides individual and
group counseling for students.
as well as “community sup
port meetings" that target
friends and associates of stu-
dents who have committed
suicide.

“It helps them gain perspec-
tive and gain support from one
another." he added.

Meilman also said the after
math ofa suicide is "a particu-
larly difficult time" for other
people. “If someone commits
suicide.“ he added. "it tends to
stimulate others to think about
suicide.“

Columbia, Brown and Yale
universities also offer counsel»
ing services. including residen-
tial counseling and a 24-hour
help line.

 

Profs want affirmative action

UCLA teachers preparing series of protests
to try and instigate re-enactment of policy

DyAndy 5m

DAILY DRUM

LOS ANGELES _. Profes-
sors at every UC campus will be
gin a series of protests in defense
of affirmative action by volun-
tarily walking out of their class-
es Wednesday and Thursday.

Many professors are plan-
ning to conduct their classes in
the Royce quad. where they will
discuss issues of diversity and
affirmative action with their
students. Other professors will
proceed with their scheduled
courseload, but will still hold
class in the quad to show their
support for the demonstrators.

“We're going to try to com-
municate to both the (universi-

ty) administration and to the
students that the faculty contin-
ues to support affirmative ac-
tion goals," said Victor Wolfen-
stein. a professor of political sci-
ence and walkout participant.

On Wednesday, there will
be a rally at Meyerhof’f Park to
begin the day’s events. There
will also be a forum where stu-
dents and faculty can express
their opinions. and later there
will be a meeting of various fac-
ulty members to determine
what can be done about the sit-
uation at UCLA.

Thursday will see numer-
ous speakers on campus. in-
cluding Rev. Jesse Jackson.
State Senator Tom Hayden and
community activist Joe Hicks.

Students are planning to
help organize the workshops
and rally, said Stacy Lee. Un-
dergraduate Students Associa~
tion Council (USAC) president.

“It's our way of showing
solidarity with the professors."
she said.

This action is the latest in a
series of protests that have been
ongoing since 1995. when the UC
Board of Regents passed resolu-
tions SP-l and SP-2. which
banned the use of race or gender
in admission considerations.

Those resolutions foreshad-
owed Proposition 209. the
statewide initiative that passed
in 1996, banning the considera-
tion of race or gender in all
state hiring.

Some professors and stu-
dents are also planning to rally
in support of ethnic studies. as
well. Earlier this year. UC re-
gent Ward Connerly said he

was “questioning“ the role of
ethnic studies and graduations
in the UCs.

Some fear this will lead to
the removal of ethnic studies
from the UCs. said Rafael Perez
Torres. professor of English lit»
erature and walkout organizer.

“When (Connerly) ques-
tioned affirmative action. it
eventually led to the removal of
it." he said.

About 35 UCLA professors
have stated their intent to walk
out. but more are expected to
show up as more faculty mem»
bers learn about the protests.
Perez-Torres said.

Until now. protests on the
issue have been mainly stu-
dent-organized and student-
run. This protest will mark the
first time that faculty have par-
ticipated in a large-scale protest
of the effects of SP]. SP2 and
Proposition 209.
