I don't think this is a good idea. Having gone through being sanctioned by both nationals and our university for being caught "hazing".

I think that this is like comparing apples to oranges, and the punishment is justifiable in terms of the crime.
Who determines the who, what, where, when , and why of the situation?
Courts decide all the 5W's of the situation as they would in any transgression of the law.

Here's what I think is interesting about this though -- a universal definition of what hazing is. Often in this forum we discuss hazing. Many of us have different opinions of what it is. This bill would settle (at least legally) once and for all what hazing consists of.
