Is a university campus truly a safe haven for its students? The recent tragic passing of Christina Dechalk, a vibrant third-year computer science major at Cal Poly, casts a long shadow over the community and forces a somber reflection on the well-being of its students.
The university's announcement last week confirmed the devastating news: Christina Dechalk passed away on a Sunday in January. This loss is particularly heartbreaking as she was a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and the second member of that sorority to pass away within the past year, according to sources. Her passing marks a painful moment for Cal Poly, especially as it grapples with the fact that she was reportedly one of five students to die in less than a year, as reported by calcoastnews.com. The Cal Poly community is united in mourning the loss of one of their own.
