Big Understatement
Over the weekend the chancellor of UC Santa Cruz committed suicide. That is tragic and I don’t mean to make light of the situation, but this is the lead paragraph in the AP’s writeup, emphasis mine:
“Everybody’s stunned,” Santa Cruz Mayor Cynthia Mathews said of the death Saturday of Denice Dee Denton, 46. “It’s sad for her personally and for the university. It’s been a very tough tenure for her.”
Yes, I’m sure that for her, committing suicide is personally sad. And, seeing how it involved suicide, it would appear that her tenure was, in fact, very tough. I’m glad Santa Cruz has such a brilliant mayor to help them through the tough times.

Once again, not to make light of the situation, but was that seriously the best picture that CNN could find of her?
