I imagine group mentality and the desire to belong or to be popular often overtake common sense and rational thinking. It is also said that the human brain is not fully developed until our early 20's, so there is something to be said for poor decision making being the result of an underdeveloped brain. Also, those who join GLO's tend to be people who believe in conforming to group ideals (which is great if we're talking about people working in a team toward a common goal, but extremely dangerous if everyone is jumping off a bridge so you decide it is a good idea because everyone else is going for it), so people are trying to conform and please. This is a terrible, tragic situation and I hope that the students who have been harmed will heal.
