Jesus. Number six. His name is Raymond Chase, he was a 19-year-old student at Johnson & Wales in Providence, and he hung himself in his dorm room Wednesday night. I can't even believe these young men are now becoming statistics.
Seth Walsh(http://bit.ly/aIrybc), Asher Brown(http://bit.ly/bvrgQF), Justin Aaberg(http://bit.ly/9S1JlY) (he died in July), and Billy Lucas(http://bit.ly/dyNZ6W), and Tyler Clementi(http://bit.ly/adLxkm). Now, a fifth young soul.
From a CampusPride.org release(http://bit.ly/boRCoG), it's unclear why Chase — a Monticello, New York native — took his own life.
Ronald Martel, the school's dean of students, emailed the campus yesterday:
> Today I contact you with the deeply sad news of the passing of Raymond Chase,
> sophomore, 19, culinary arts major. The campus community is mourning the loss of
> this vibrant young man who leaves many JWU friends and teachers, and a loving
> family of Monticello, New York.
> Funeral arrangements are not available at this time. As we obtain more information
> that can be shared, we will do so. Ray's JWU friends and the university are planning
> a memorial service for the campus community. Those details will be forthcoming.
> In the meantime, I encourage anyone who is having a difficult time to seek the
> services available at Student Counseling. Our staff of professionals is here to work
> with all of you during this sorrowful time. Their help and confidentiality is a benefit
> that you should consider.
> Student Counseling services are available at the The Friedman Center, 2nd floor,
> Harborside Campus and at Wales (formerly Plantations) Hall, 2nd Floor, Downcity
> Campus. Call 401-598-1016 to reach both locations.
> By expressing the university community's condolences to Ray's family, I join you
> during this time of bereavement.
Our hearts go out to Raymond's family.
