The Kansas University freshman found dead outside Watkins Scholarship Hall Friday morning fell from the dorm’s three-story roof, KU spokeswoman Jill Jess said.

At 8 a.m. Friday, a resident director of the hall, found the body of 18-year-old Dalton Eli Hawkins outside the south side of the hall, which houses 50 female students.

About 2 a.m. Friday, KU officers responded to a call from Watkins Hall regarding a report of a broken window on the fire exit door at the rear of the hall.

Hawkins, an 18-year-old honors student from Shawnee, lived in Ellsworth residence hall and was a member of the Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity.
