Challenge: According to the Hazing in View: Students at Risk Study 55% of college students involved in clubs, teams and organizations experience hazing.
Additionally, 40% of athletes who reported being involved in hazing behaviors report that a coach or advisor was aware of the activity: 22% percent report that the coach was involved. Many victims of hazing do not report and often live in silence.
What is hazing? Hazing was defined as “any activity expected of someone joining or participating in a group that humiliates, degrades, abuses, or endangers them regardless of a person’s willingness to participate.” (Hazing in View: Students at Risk Study)
