Tommy Jones attempted to kill himself this morning. Obviously this is not going to become public knowledge, and Charles and I have already talked, but this is something I felt you should be aware of. Tommy and I spent a while talking and he's doing better, but I'm still worried, particularly about him staying on his own. I'm not saying he needs a suicide watch, but I think he suffers from his isolation far more than he would be willing to admit. Consequently, I think we should try and find a suitemate for him.

Obviously, this is hard because I agree with the decision not to break up any of the settled student suites - they've found their own balance about living together and shaking that up on Tommy's behalf would probably not go over very well. Have been going over the enrollment lists and trying to find someone who would be suitable, but I welcome any suggestions since I'm really getting nowhere. I almost want to say we should ask Shiro if he'd be willing to help out. He's old enough and responsible enough to understand what we'd be asking, I think, and he hasn't got the same record with FoH that many of the others do and, with Alex having moved into Lorna's rooms, he's in an odd rooming situation.

Shiro might actually be a very good choice, if he's agreeable. He's proven himself responsible, and he's a strong enough personality to hold his own without getting aggressive or defensive, I think.

I'll ask him, Jean, unless you'd prefer to do it.
