Abstract
The Issue of Suicide: Policy Response for a Small Liberal Arts University
Bost J M~~Ballou R A
This article acknowledges the vast diversity of institutions of higher education and the consequent need to individually tailor programs and services for students, and offers a response to the issue of suicide in a small liberal arts university. A brochure on suicide was developed for the student community to affirm the sanctity of human life, raise consciousness, provide guidelines for detecting and responding to suicidal students and state the university response to suicide attempts.
