Hillsdale gained national attention in 1999, when Lissa Jackson Roche, the daughter-in-law of college president George Roche III, committed suicide shortly after revealing that she and her father-in-law had conducted an extramarital affair for over nineteen years. Roche's body was discovered in the college's Slayton Arboretum. Amidst the breaking scandal, George Roche III resigned as president of the college. Controversy still rages over whether she committed suicide or was murdered, and a book was written on the tragedy. Despite this incident, which inspired an episode of NBCs Law & Order, Roche's labors to improve the college remain respected, and the college's sports complex, built during his presidency, bears his name. Roche died on Friday, May 5, 2006 in Louisville, Kentucky.
