Suicide epidemic at University of Pennsylvania

"Fourteen kids have died at their own hands just since 2013 and many more before that -- a rate that is at least twice that of any other university or college we're aware of in the United States of America," said Nelson Shepherd.

"There seems to be something unique about Penn that it is not only a pressure cooker, but there's this culture where the students are almost not permitted to show any vulnerability," said Nelson Shepherd.

It's a phrase coined on the Ivy League campus as "Penn Face."

"'Penn Face' is pretty much where students really act like everything is OK when sometimes things really aren't OK," said sophomore Joshua Tulanda.
