The suicide of Bradley Ginsburg, a member of Cornell University's class of 2013, prompted Ginsberg's father to sue Cornell, several university administrators and the city of Ithaca, N.Y., The Cornell Daily Sun reported Friday. Although the bridge where the suicide occurred is owned by the city, the student's father, Howard Ginsburg, said the university could have done more to prevent his son's death. Ginsburg's death and similar incidents could have been prevented if the university had made mental health a larger priority and raised more awareness of the three student suicides that occurred in 2009, Howard Ginsburg said in the lawsuit he filed on Nov. 21. Since Ginsburg's death, Cornell has installed fences and 24-hour guards at the site of the bridge. The university expects that the case will be dismissed, a Cornell spokesperson said in an interview with the Ithaca Journal.

Feeling a little bloated after Thanksgiving feasts? If you’re thinking about running off the holiday weight over the next few weeks this isn’t a bad time to start training for next year’s NYC Marathon.
You can look to Dartmouth students Annie Oppenheim, Audrey Sherman, and Katie Rohn for tips on the race – all three ran the 26 mile race through Team for Kids earlier this month. The organization has brought health and fitness programs to 100,000 children in over 400 schools across the US and Africa, according to their site. To date they have raised over $16 million for their cause.
According to the marathon trio, training was enjoyable because they had the opportunity to go on runs throughout the area (which, needless to say, included beautiful scenery) and to spend time together wile working out.
After four hours and six minutes of running and months of training, the three of them crossed the finish line feeling uplifted and accomplished; an ideal end to such a rewarding experience.
