Arrr, matey! A lass o' learnin' met her doom by a leaden ball, while a scallywag who ain't no scholar shot himself in a fit o' folly, says the cap'n o' the uni! A fine mess, ye say? Aye, the seas be rough indeed!

Avast, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a tale from the hallowed halls of learnin'. A fair lass, a student of the noble arts, met an untimely fate by a most treacherous bullet. Aye, she was struck down like a ship in a storm, and the winds of misfortune blew hard upon her sails.

But lo! The story takes a curious turn, for the scallywag responsible was no scholar of the seas. Nay! It was a scoundrel not enrolled in the university's ranks. In a twist most unfortunate, he found himself with a self-inflicted wound—aye, a true pirate’s folly! To shoot oneself, what a blunder! Tis like a captain sinking his own ship, I tell ye!

The president of the university, that wise old sea dog, shared this grim news with the crew of scholars and mates alike. A tragedy it be, indeed, that such fine minds must grapple with the perils of the world beyond their ivory towers. So, let us raise a tankard to the lass taken too soon and shake our heads at the foolishness of men who shoot themselves instead of their targets. Aye, it be a tale to make any pirate weep and laugh all at once!
