Syracuse University student dies in car accident

A Syracuse University student was killed in a car crash over the weekend, the university announced Monday in an email to the student body.

Hunter Watson, originally from McLean, Virginia, was a rising junior in the School of Information Studies and a member of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. He died in a car accident in Dover, Delaware, according to the email from Rebecca Reed Kantrowitz, senior vice president and dean of student affairs.
“This is a sad day for everyone — his family, his friends, our school and the university as a whole,” said Liz Liddy, dean of the iSchool and former interim vice chancellor and provost at SU, in an email to iSchool students.
