How Do We “Know” When Hazing is Occurring?
Presented by Dave Westol, Limberlost Consulting
“Suspect” may be a better word than “Know,” but the clues, signs and indicators of hazing tend to be consistent and recognizable in student groups. Some are obvious, such as lower than average grades, attrition above a certain percentage, carrying heavy objects in backpacks and black plastic garbage bags covering first floor windows during certain times. Other indicators are subtle: delaying the identification of “bigs” until late in the program, PNMs required to have Life360 or a similar app, coded language in descriptions of the PNM process relating to endurance and commitment, the use of a PCP, and disproportionately high fees for joining. We’ll review a list of 25 practices, actions and activities that suggest hazing is occurring in clubs, organizations, teams, bands and fraternity/sorority life and questions to ask about those activities.
