Student obituary

Princeton NJ -- Sophomore Melissa M. Huang of Mechanicsburg, Pa., died Sept. 5 in her Wilson College dorm. She was 19.

Huang was found by a University custodian and her parents, who had arranged to meet their daughter on campus. The cause of death remains unknown, however police officials have ruled out criminal activity. An autopsy was conducted by the Mercer County Medical Examiner's Office, but preliminary results were inconclusive.

Huang came to Princeton from Cumberland Valley High School, where she graduated with honors in 2003. A student in the School of Engineering and Applied Science, she spent this summer working on a chemical engineering research project.

Survivors include her parents, Leon Keng-Lock Huang and Sauling Huang; a brother, Kevin, and a sister, Alina, all of Mechanicsburg, Pa.

The funeral service will be private. A memorial service will be held on campus at a later date.
