- The intent of JozJozJoz's post was to respect the two students, and yes, it is a mark of respect to treat these two people as people, who have left information about themselves on the publicly accessible internet – rather than anonymous statistics.
- What some commenters are this thread see as us slandering the person in question comes from a source from the HKSA page, available publicly, and is most likely written by the person himself, in third person, and that is the assumption by readers coming to this blog post. [As other members of HKSA have bios where members write in first person, this backs up the claim.] The intent for including this information is not to be malicious, because if this post WAS malicious in intent, not only would this post be written in a different way, but I wouldn't stand for this as the editor of 8Asians; in fact it's completely the opposite.
- As editor, the community of 8Asians is welcome to agree or disagree with the points in this blog post. This is neither, and I will not be forced by our community to edit content.

If anyone wishes to contact me as editor, I can be reached via the “Contact Us” link at the bottom of the page. And even with this debate, I truly do want to give condolences to the families and friends of both Jackson and Brian.

I'm a bit confused about what you expect Caltech authorities to do about a simple post contains no defamatory or illegal information on an independent blog that is not associated with the school at all.

Anyway, good luck to you. I'm very sorry for the loss of your friend. It's a tragic situation that no one should have to go through, and it's sad to see this energy being spent on taking down such a harmless post.

But I can see how people can misconstrue that, and I want to thank you for pointing that out.
