If the changes of A, B or C are anything other than 100%, then the possibility exists that someone could have intervened in this case and that other people can learn that even though it may make you seem like a dork, keeping your friends from using or getting them help if they do might save their lives.

I always want that to be the focus of risk management, rather than dollar value liability that we ultimately get hung up on. You want to keep people from killing themselves or others; the financial risk is very real and sometimes the only thing to convince more libertarian members, but first, take care of your sisters, brothers, and friends, and self so that you don't die before you have to.
Amen.

This is the risk management forum, not the honor the memories of the dead people who did stupid things forum. If this is common at SDSU, then perhaps national organizations might want to start considering closing chapters. The more common the knowledge that drugs like cocaine are part of the greek party scene out there, the more likely this sort of thing is to come back on an organization.
