A two car crash Thursday night took the life of ASU student, Jacob Whitaker. The accident occurred on Hwy 105. He was a friend of my daughter.

That makes five students we have lost this year. I can't comprehend such heartbreak.

Let your daughter and this circle of friends know there are people thinking about them. I don't know if that means much from a semi-anonymous internet message board, but it is true.

Pretty good article about the recent ASU student deaths:

Difficult issue to combat, but the campus is not ignoring it at all.
