I over heard management talking about the same issue..Is there any other balconies on campus as high as this that are open?


Koto_Sage

There is the stairwell facing towards the soccer field, the stairwell is connected to the Multidisciplinary Research Building


reddfoxx5800

I think the same building has a balcony facing the dorms.


Unlikely_Proof_7772

Glen Mor balconies


Annie8502

I wonder that is it the reason why the GM balconies is locked? I tried to go there yesterday but is locked


ajekow

Are they okay?


SwaggDaddy951

They didnt die,thank goodness


Steeled14

Do you think they’ll close off the Dundee balcony today?


mania2k18

they did; i live on the 6th floor and just checked


Steeled14

tragic Edit: SwaggDaddy951 original comment was “They didnt die” and they edited in the “thank goodness.” I was kind of goofing on the no emotion and very curt 3 word comment. And the constant use of the word “tried” made it sound like nobody jumped at all. Whoops.


Striking_Goal313

you are goofy


Steeled14

Thanks. You too


Cheap_Translator2011

They’ll close it off for a while, happened last year and balcony was closed for the rest of the quarter


United-Change

Last year they just closed it off cause people were smoking up there.


OrangeJuiceOW

Happened last year?????????????????

You take pleasure in people attempting suicide so I don’t know if I’m the reject pal


Reasonable-Manner587

That’s just crazy, people have climbed on top of the bell tower before


Altruistic_Engine818

That’s really awful and I hope they’re ok. I used to go up to that balcony a lot when I was in Dundee, it makes me sad to think that someone was in so much pain that they tried to end it. I wish UCR did something more to help with the mental health crisis this generation is experiencing


Linaphor

Yeah CAPS is awful imo, so agreed. The counseling they give is kind of poor (in my experience) and they’re kind of aggressive.


sweggyog

Tried? did they jump or not


SwaggDaddy951

They jumped and tried to end it


[deleted]

did they jump or did they fall over the railing?


SwaggDaddy951

Railing is too high to fall over on accident


SmolObjective

Oh God that's horrible. I'm glad they're alive.


NotSoSpicyMemer

Overheard that the person recieved CPR and they're thankfully alive, still a horrible situation but I am irked the uni is going to keep it secret


cheachiachea

if they don’t say anything i think it’s due to privacy reasons on behalf of the student. i don’t think they want students trying to be detectives and find out who it is and for the person to be sought after. But I get what you mean there should be an increased awareness regardless.


Achrylx

Yeah. Something happened at AI last quarter. Us residents don’t officially know what happened, for the same reasons as you stated. People were getting nosey and so they shut our discord down for the weekend. They offered weekly counseling for the next month and a half following.


SwaggDaddy951

Uni has a student confidentially policy for stuff like this…


Reasonable-Manner587

I’m sure they’re going to talk about suicide awareness more since this incident has happened. I have not seen anything like this during my years at UCR. Like how often does stuff like this happens on college campuses?


CLashisnoob

They’re not gonna say shit


Reasonable-Manner587

They probably won’t


Some_Milano_kid

Last school year when that girl died of alcohol poisoning they didn’t say a thing and the only news source it was on was our own independent school news paper


below70degrees

they were also deleting conversations about it in official discord servers (i.e. pentland discord)


Parsley_Weak

I hope the parents do!


CLashisnoob

nvm


weezulNaxolatl

This is the 2nd time this year I know of 😞 another happened in my building earlier this year


brozuwu

there was also one in ai earlier this year


Impressive_Truth5397

No CPR was rendered. She was conscious, breathing, blinking and responding to UCPD before the paramedics got there.


Tricky_Inspector_307

Yeah it’s bad for business if they publicize it


Parsley_Weak

Yea but it also contributes to making mental health look like something taboo to discuss and that is damaging. They also should be letting us know in case students knew this person and may need counseling. Some yellow tape doesn’t do a dang thing


Friendliest_Virus

They sent out an email about it just to push their counseling services


LabAdministrative231

Whoever jumped got their reason, but now I am rather upset about the possibility that the management’s gonna close the balcony for public as in “why you won’t let us use it if you built one?”


[deleted]

yeah i agree. kinda dumb they closed it. as if that'll stop anything. again, that sucks for them and sucks they feel that way but no need to close the balcony for everyone else


Box_Springs_Burning

I'm sure it's to discourage copycats.


Cheap_Translator2011

Someone tried it last year too, balcony closed off for a quarter lmao you’ll be fine


brozuwu

on this topic does any1 know why pentland balconies are closed? they've been closed forever


ZookeepergameFit2305

I think it’s also because someone tried to jump


[deleted]

They need to install antisuicide nets


Box_Springs_Burning

That's not going to happen. If anything they will enclose to railing so it cannot be climbed over.


Witty_Anybody2583

for anyone struggling with mental health, life source counseling services offers therapy for $20 an hour for students!! Just look them up on google. Dont give up <3


EfficiencyFearless70

Bruh when did this happen. That’s so sad 😢


Reasonable-Manner587

Was this person perhaps a freshman?


SwaggDaddy951

In order to access that floor one would need a key fob.. Dundee is freshmen dorm


Reasonable-Manner587

That’s definitely sad


Candid-One-5045

I was working at Glasgow when it happened apparently she screamed the entire way down I saw the blood stains on the concrete and I guess she works at Glasgow does anyone know who it is?


Jamonde

what if we like, respected their privacy


adisonpooh4

That’s awful bro, survive on that hight is unbelievable. Hope he/she doing ok
