sorry, hehehe, but i had specific questions this time though. i cant even find on my own school sites how to report hazing.......and my university barely touches on the topic. just like dont do it, blah blah, and moves on to the next topic like fundraising guidelines. This is what it says on the school website, nothing about how to report or phone numbers, etc....too bad the new memebrs/pledges are not required to go to the hazing meetings before starting so they would be able to recognize what is hazing and get out faster or report it.
Hazing
Two areas where organizations have been held liable and been forced to pay large punitive settlements are injuries and deaths resulting from hazing. Hazing of organization members, new or active, alumni or prospective is against the law. Not only can an organization face a civil law suit from the victims of hazing but members involved in hazing can face criminal prosecution. The easiest way to minimize your organization's risk in regards to hazing claims is to eradicate all hazing from your organization's new member activities. (For more information on hazing, ways to eradicate hazing from your organization, and positive alternatives for new member activities, see the Student Activities brochure What Is Hazing?)
