A Syracuse University student died from a fall early Saturday morning.

In an email sent to SU students, faculty and staff Saturday morning, Chancellor Nancy Cantor identified the student as Marianne Guppenberger, a freshman in the College of Arts and Sciences.

The cause of death has not yet been released.

Multiple calls made to officials from the Syracuse Police Department and Department of Public Safety this weekend were not returned.

Guppenberger was from Taipei, Taiwan, and was a resident of Day Hall, according to the email.

“At this very difficult time, our hearts are with Marianne’s family, friends, and all members of the SU community whose lives she touched,” Cantor said in the email. “The loss of a member of the campus community is painful for all of us, and everyone is affected differently.”

Thomas Wolfe, senior vice president and dean of the division of student affairs, said student affairs is providing support to all those affected.

A time to remember Guppenberger on campus will be planned for a later date, according to the email.
