Abstract

Four faculty members are enjoying a late spring morning chit-chatting in the de­partmental suite. A call to the department secretary from the Deans Office breaks the mood by indicating that a young man who had just graduated had just been found dead in his parents' house; a suicide. The case is presented as a one act play with the four faculty members having very different reactions concerning what if any intervention could have been initiated by faculty members and peers.
