Anti-Hazing

果冻影院's Commitment

The 果冻影院 (果冻影院) supports a safe environment where students can participate in student organization activities and experiences without compromising their physical and mental health, well-being, and dignity. As such, 果冻影院 prohibits acts of Hazing that may occur related to the initiation, pledging, joining, or continued membership of any student organization.

果冻影院 encourages the reporting of prohibited conduct by any member of the 果冻影院 community. Any person aware of hazing that is scheduled or has taken place is encouraged to immediately report the information. Prompt reporting allows 果冻影院 personnel to gather information related to the alleged activity.

The 果冻影院 defines Hazing as any intentional, knowing, or reckless act by a person (whether individually or in concert with others) against another person or persons, involving engaging in or coercing, pressuring, or soliciting participation in any act of initiation into or affiliation with or continued membership in a student organization that causes or creates a substantial risk of physical or mental harm to any person.

Campus Hazing Transparency Report

In accordance with the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act (Clery Act), 果冻影院 prepares a Campus Hazing Transparency Report (CHTR) summarizing the findings of reports of hazing. The CHTR will list the student organization involved, description of the alleged incident, date(s) which the alleged incident occurred, the date the investigation was initiated, findings of the investigation, and any sanctions placed on the student organization. The CHTR lists reports involving only officially recognized student organizations regardless of where the hazing took place.

Hazing that occurs on 果冻影院 property involving officially recognized and unofficial student organizations are included in the ACSR. In addition, the ACSR includes statistics for several crime categories as well as 果冻影院 policies and procedures for reporting crimes and emergencies.

Bystander Intervention

Bystander intervention refers to the act of safely intervening in a potentially harmful situation to prevent or mitigate negative outcomes. It involves recognizing a potentially problematic situation, understanding one's role in potentially influencing the outcome, and then taking action to help, either directly or indirectly.

Bystander intervention has five stages: notice the behavior, interpret the behavior as a problem, recognize your responsibility to intervene, developing skills to intervene safely, and taking action.

Developed by StopHazing.org and The Clery Center, the (PDF) explains how bystander intervention can influence hazing situations.

If you do not feel comfortable intervening or it is a dangerous situation, contact 果冻影院 Public Safety immediately at (414) 955-8299 or by calling your local law enforcement department.
