With National Hazing Prevention Week underway (9/19-9/23), we are writing to
thank you for your commitment to eliminating hazing and to ask for your continued participation in this effort.
Our research indicates that as many as 55% of students who are involved in campus clubs, organizations, or teams, have been hazed. As you know, hazing can be hazardous, physically abusive, sexually violating, and even deadly. Lack of awareness and understanding about hazing and its causes remains pervasive and is a major impediment to the development of effective prevention strategies. Last year, we released
The National Agenda for Hazing Prevention in Education (see attached).
