Universiti­es need to learn lessons

-

I was saddened to read that the student who took his life in lockdown was one of 11 in just six years at Exeter University.

I went to a university in Wales and the first year I was there, two students committed suicide and two others attempted it. That was more than 38 years ago. It would seem that universiti­es are still not doing enough for student welfare and lessons need to be learned.
