<p>Whoa, let's not be too ridiculous, here. Cornell doesn't really have that high a sucide rate compared to other colleges per capita, and neither does Berkeley, not even close. Terrible and false generalizations.</p>
<p>a more accurate statement would be that cornell has the highest suicide rate among the ivy league colleges.</p>
<p>Cornell has a lower suicide than the national average, the last time I heard. I assure you, that was not a factor.</p>
<p>Well cornell does have that notorious "suicide bridge"...</p>
<p>Turned down Cal, NYU, Boston College, and the rest of the UCs.</p>
<p>ucsd, uci, ucsb, nyu, GW elliot with half tuition, USC, BU</p>
<p>turned down Cal, enough said :)</p>
