Tragic reports are speaking about the death of a 23-year-old student from the University of Glasgow.
According to local media outlets, the student named Ethan Scott Brown had passed away on December 13, 2024, after the institution mistakenly told him that he had not earned enough credits. Now that’s an error that they later went on to acknowledge, but it was too late because the damage had been done.
An internal report is speaking about the tragic mistake, and for which they rolled out a sincere apology, but his family and many people don’t think that’s a good enough excuse.
He was told that he didn’t have enough credits to graduate and that all of the hard work that he had put in was going to waste. His family says that they noticed a serious change in his actions and his behavior, and it was just sad overall to see this side.
‘All his confidence was gone, and his plans for the future were shattered. This was an error that was not caught early enough, despite the college having multiple layers of academic scrutiny’- the statement from the family read.
The family says that they pressed the university for answers because things did not add up. And that’s when they were consistently told that he lacked the needed credits and mentioned how a review found failures both in the calculation of his degree outcome and communications.
