College officials say Ryan Smith died today. He had fallen from the fifth floor of the Fisher Hassenfeld College House at about 10:30 a.m. Saturday.
It is not clear what caused the fall. Smith lived in another dorm.
His family said through a university spokeswoman earlier this week that they do not believe it was a suicide attempt.
Smith was from Rose Valley in Delaware County. He was a sophomore engineering major. -AP
