I am deeply saddened to share the tragic news of the untimely death of our Ä¢¹½tv freshman student Douglas Haney, of Bellefonte, Pa., a Political Science major. He died yesterday in his on-campus residence, Shafer Hall. The Indiana County coroner is working to determine the cause of death.

Obviously the death of any Ä¢¹½tv student is tragic and difficult to bear for members of the Ä¢¹½tv community. I am sure you join me in expressing concern and sympathy for Douglas's friends and family.

The Ä¢¹½tv Counseling Center provides walk-in crisis counseling to students on a daily basis. Students also may call the Counseling Center at 724-357-2621 to make an appointment or to speak to a counselor. A 24-hour crisis hotline is available at 724-465-2605.

A memorial service for Douglas will be scheduled at a later date.

Sincerely,

President Atwater
