The woman who attempted suicide Tuesday by jumping from a seventh-floor Calder Commons hallway window is still at Geisinger Medical Center in serious condition, a hospital spokeswoman said yesterday.

The State College Police Department is continuing its investigation of the woman's suicide attempt and is not making any further comments on the incident, Sgt. John Wilson said.

Police believe the female State College resident and Penn State employee either climbed or jumped from the window about 10 minutes before a staff member doing building maintenance saw her and called police at 10:03 a.m.

The woman, who does not live at Calder Commons, 520 E. Calder Way, forcibly removed a windowpane near the building's seventh-floor elevators and fell to the building's second-story roof.

She was first transported to Centre Community Hospital with serious injuries.

She was later flown by helicopter to Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, police said.

Police said the woman left written information saying she intended to kill herself.

The Daily Collegian was able to identify the woman, but due to the nature of the incident, the Collegian is withholding her name from this report.

Speaking in terms of general procedure, Wilson said police do not charge people who attempt to commit suicide. Suicide is a mental health and not a criminal issue, he added.

However, police charge anyone who helps someone else commit suicide with aiding and abiding suicide, Wilson said.

Officials from Calder Commons and the Penn State Department of Public Information would not offer any comments yesterday on the incident.
