# Hazing

## Hazing

Every member of the University community should be able to participate in activities and organizations without compromising their health, safety, and welfare. Hazing is unacceptable and is a violation of University policy.

### Reporting Hazing

The University encourages all alleged acts of hazing to be reported promptly to University officials and/or law enforcement agencies. The criminal process and the University disciplinary process are separate and independent. Reporting to the University does not preclude a victim from filing a report with the police. The University will not wait for the conclusion of criminal investigations or proceedings to conduct its own investigation and adjudication.

Reports of hazing may be made to the following:

- The Office of the Dean of Students
- The Office of Public Safety
- Local law enforcement
