When I was at ASU they built a new building across from the H wing. It was the new life science building. We quickly dubbed it the death science building because there were three or four suicide jumpers in quick succesion until they locked the building down tighter than a drum.
All of them were asians. None of them were flunking out. It was noted by thier asian friends that these guys were “failures” and deeply ashamed because they were not maintian 4.0s in whatever.
One kid killed himself by slitting his own throat.
I can’t imagine that kind of family pressure that would make someone do that.
As for SDDuuuude kids… Man… they are well adjusted smart little kids…
They are proof positive that kids can be kids and do well in life.
