Will Harvard and the rest of the IVY Leaguers fall into the problem that Cornell is having? increase suicide rates in the school due to intense pressure to succeed in extremely competitive schools.

I will hope not, but i can understand all the pressure these students are going through to succeed. The majority of students who got accepted to these big schools are highly competitive in nature and do not easily accept defeat without fighting back hard. So, if you have a school full of these type of people, the competition gets fierce and cut-throat, that's a lot to handle and just smells trouble right there.

Well, since the news of the situation in Cornell came out. I'm sure a lot of the schools are monitoring the situation closely or to put more counseling effort and have more awareness about their student's psche.
