Upgrading to 3.16 still caused display to crash.
I've successfully upgraded to kernel 3.19 (3.19.0-31-generic) and haven't experienced the display crash issue since.
sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-vivid
I only ran into one issue with the i915 DKMS module crashing and fixed it by installing the 3.19 version:
sudo apt-get install i915-3.19-3.13-dkms
Since those two package upgrades, my 14.04.3 LTS install has been running great.
