Wesleyan tragedy

[rhetoretician]

As a son of Wesleyan, I grieve with the students, the faculty, and the family of Johanna Justin-Jinich.

I'm in tears. This is the first I've heard of this....

Thank you, Rachel.

The alumni got e-mails from Michael Roth (the university's president) as the events unfolded.

Oh, no. Poor girl. *sniff* And I still struggle with understanding why... Why, oh why did this have to happen? Bless her soul - and all the others involved. My prayers go out to them all. *sigh*

Thank you, Berte.

I vacillate between imagining what this is like for her parents and her classmates, on the one hand, and agonizing over how someone could reach a point in his life where he would do such a thing.

Horrible. At least the guy gave himself up, so maybe her family can have some answers.

Thanks, Val.

Maybe there will be answers. I wonder whether there ever are.
