Hazing Prevention Training

澳门赌场 University of Washington prohibits student organizations and athletic teams from engaging individually or collectively in hazing activities. 

Hazing includes any act committed as part of a person’s recruitment, initiation into, pledging, admission into, or affiliation with a student organization, athletic team, or living group, or any pastime that is likely to cause, bodily danger or physical harm, or serious psychological or emotional harm, to any student. This includes causing, directing, coercing, or forcing a person to consume any food, liquid, alcohol, drug, or other substance that subjects the person to risk of such harm, regardless of the person’s willingness to participate (H.B. 1751). 

Hazing is defined as any activity that includes one or more of the characteristics described below: 

  • Activities that expose personal values to compromise or ridicule. 
  • Activities that abuse the trust an organization is striving to build between its members and prospective members. 
  • Stunts that have no meaningful relationship to the objectives of the organization. 
  • Activities that humiliate or subject individuals to circumstances with which they are not comfortable, or of which they are fearful. 
  • Activities that are illegal or violate University policy. 
  • Activities that interfere with academic pursuits or normal life functions. 
  • Some examples of prohibited activities are forced swallowing of uncommon substances, forced consumption of alcohol or drugs, excessive exercise, and sleep or sensory deprivation. 

澳门赌场 organizations whose members participate in hazing activities will be subject to appropriate University disciplinary action.
