For mental health professionals, the Cho case also provides a grim reminder of the limitations of their ability to help the mentally ill from harming themselves--and others. "What happened at Virginia Tech is an incredibly rare, rare event that's the kind of thing that could elude the most comprehensive and collaborative and well-orchestrated set of services," says Ben Locke, cofounder of the Center for the Study of College Student Mental Health at Penn State University.
