College student gets hurt while taking a short cut

An ISU student fell 10 or more feet into a ravine and is listed in critical condition. The 22-year-old man fell into a ravine south of campus. No better description was given. An earlier story provides more details. The young man was walking with friends near Arbor Street and Sheldon Avenue around 2:00 a.m. and it's alleged he may have attempted a short cut where he fell. The young man is Jeremy Croghan. I'm surprised there are no warnings or that he would not see warnings assuming any existed. As a lawyer my first thought is sobriety. Were you drinking? What were you doing there? Why cut across this area? Was there a path? Should you have been there? Were there warning signs? Why would the owner anticipate you walking across his property? Should the owner have anticipated you being there?

FAQs

Life on Campus

Can I hold the parents of my child's classmate responsible for hurting and bullying my daughter?

Can I sue the school if a teacher is bullying my son? Can I sue my son's school or teacher? Yesterday I found out that my son's teacher cussed at my son and then kicked a desk onto my son and admitted on the phone when I called the school to me and to the assistant principal. This is not the first problem I had with this teacher, but the school suspended my son and it wasn't cause of that. It was because she was hurt and my son and he wouldn't do any work. She knew she was wrong because she did not tell anyone or her boss about what happened. That's improper expulsion, bulling by a teacher and nobody will do any thing about it. What do I need to do?

Can I sue for my account being banned due to using another account that violated the TOU?After playing a game with another account that had violated the TOU, my account that has done nothing wrong was banned from the service, there was no warning, or even notification of a ban. Would I be able to make a case for a suit, or are there no laws on digital services? I have tried to contact the developer, as well as another software company, but they refuse to do anything about it.
