Southern Arkansas
University falls silent to its second death within two weeks.
According to MagnoliaReporter.Com, a male student was
found deceased in Columbia Hall
Wednesday evening, October 11, 2017. It can be assumed that he had committed
suicide, but the details are still being investigated.
The short duration
between suicides could be alarming, and the SAU staff are encouraging students
to seek more help when faced with life threatening situations. Sources asked students and staff to wear yellow as a symbol of suicide awareness.
If you or someone
you know are dealing with self-deprecation or is having thoughts of suicide, please seek help immediately and encourage your loved ones to seek help as
well.
Ask about sources of
assistance for positive recovery and thinking. Don't be afraid to ask for help
or attention.
