He told some of his employees that he was going to the terrace of the building for a walk. Within next few min- utes he jumped from the ter- race and allegedly committed suicide. Shah was rushed to the nearby hospital where he was declared dead on admission. His body has been sent for a post mortem. “We have found a two-line suicide note on the desk of the deceased. In the note, he has stated that it was his decision to take the extreme step and no one should be blamed for it. We have registered an acci- dental death case and are investigating the matter,” a senior police inspector attached to the D B Nagar police station said. Shah’s death came as a big shock to the city's diamond and jewellery industry. The police are trying to ascertain the reasons for Shah’s alleged suicide.      !"#$%$% ' =

Universities are making great progress when it comes to using data to help with retention and student suc- cess. However, there is still much room for improvement to take advantage of data-dri- ven decision-making across the entire cam- pus. For instance, data can be used to deter- mine if classrooms are being utilised optimally before new construction projects are kicked off. It can and should be used to determine if aging computer labs should be renewed or transformed into something that is more use- ful to the university.
