a hazing-free environment
Jan 25, 2013

Dear Student:

Each semester brings exciting opportunities for involvement and leadership in campus and community organizations, such as fraternities, sororities, selective living groups, and non-residential groups. For some organizations, a new member period—sometimes referred to as pledging—occurs as new members join the group.

During this busy time, we would like to remind you of Duke’s commitment to a hazing-free environment. Hazing is described as any activity (regardless of a person’s willingness to participate) that is harmful or potentially harmful to yourself or others.  Participants sometimes characterize it as a “rite of passage” to gain full membership in an organization.
