Yeah, though -- honestly -- I wish there were maybe a few sturdier guide rails around his obstacle course. (I'm unimpressed by the lack of mature involvement with the fraternity, whether alums or just hired/paid personnel ... but maybe that's just a whole other story).

I will say that I give fairly high marks to both university PD and university mental health for their part in the weekend's events. Both performed true to their tasks & lived up to their roles, which I guess is good to know (both for the students & their parents). The doctor who largely misjudged the scenario & read everything not covered by lab work pretty much completely wrong, umm, not so much.
