I am fully aware this is probably a really dumb question haha

Right now I'm planning to CTB completely alone in a forest, but there's also a really isolated spot on campus that I've realized would also work if I can't find a proper anchor point. I doubt I'll actually end up doing it there, it seems fucked up to leave my body for another kid or someone I know to find, but I'm wondering if there are any legal implications that come with a (hypothetical) student taking their own life on university grounds. I'm assuming it's not like that (very hypothetical) student's family would be able to get financial compensation or anything like that, because a suicide isn't an accident...? I'm just curious

Probably not. If you attempt and survive, they could get upset over you being a liability, but I'm not sure if that's the case in universities. I don't think your family gets money either. Just the student loans/fees forgiven.

No. A university would not have duty of care towards you to warrant paying your parents damages. I have heard of failed tort cases filed against universities.

Be aware that if you attempt on campus and fail, you may be barred from returning.
