Colleges - College News

Dartmouth College junior and rugby player with the Dartmouth rugby program, Crispin Scott, died last week while studying abroad in Barcelona.

Scott was from Seattle, Wash., and was studying mathematics.

“We are devastated by the loss of our beloved son Crispin,” parents Pat and Norm Scott said in a statement. “We are grateful for the love and support we have received from so many in the wake of such heartbreaking loss.”

According to reports,
authorities are investigating the death but do not appear to suspect foul play.

Scott was abroad on the Academy of Liberal and Beaux-Arts program run by Portland State University.
He attended a gathering Friday (Jan. 6) of at least 40 students in the program at a hotel. He did not return to his apartment and did not show up for an orientation session Saturday Jan. 7.
