<p>It is indeed premature to speculate about the causes of death. But the Yale Daily News seems to want to hint at a connection between this young man’s death and alcohol, or at least use his death as a springboard for discussing alcohol abuse:
When asked about the cause of Narcisse’s death, Miller said it would be premature and inappropriate to speculate but added that she has been communicating over the past week with masters and deans to share concerns about alcohol and drug use on campus. After last week’s Safety Dance, at least eight students needed medical attention.</p>
<p>Without addressing the cause of Narcisse’s death, Council of Masters Chair Jonathan Holloway said the Council had already been planning to discuss alcohol and drug concerns in their meeting this coming Friday. He said there is no new policy as yet, but cited the “record number” of student transports to medical facilities this semester as a serious problem.
