1. I'm a little on both sides of Neil's suicide. I think if Mr. Keating wasn't there then no Neil wouldn't have committed suicide. Simply because Neil was okay with what his parents wanted him to be and he kept his passion inside and never let anyone know. When Mr Keating came everything was different. He told his students to go for something they have a passion for and look at life differently and that's what Neil did. He did a play and got the leading role. His dad was at the show but afterwards he took Neil home and yelled at him saying that it will be embarrassing or something like that. Also his dad was going to send him to military school. Neil didn't like that because he felt like it'll let his parents down and he couldn't pursue his own dreams. So he committed suicide because he couldn't be happy.
2. I would have to say Knox would be the bravest. He wanted his dream girl and wouldn't stop until he had her. Although she rejected him because she had a boyfriend, Knox really didn't care because her boyfriend was snobby. If im not mistaken, whichever one with the glasses, red hair and really smart would be the coward. I think his name is Steven Meeks? Anyway, he would be the coward because he was all up for the Dead Poets Society but in the end he snitched on the whole group to stay in the school. So yeah that wasn't cool.
3. I don't think Mr. Keating put the book in Neil's room. I think Neil just had it with him. Mr Keating didn't really care what the administration had to say about anything. If that was the case he would have been following the rules of the school.
