(1) Hazing is a problem in the United States, 
but most especially in our Nation’s educational sys-
tem. 
(2) Hazing undermines the educational experi-
ence of the victims and the perpetrators. Hazing 
often perpetuates a cycle in which students who have 
been hazed feel the need to haze other students as 
a rite of passage to join a student organization. 
(3) While hazing takes many forms, including 
menial labor, disparagement, public or private hu-
miliation, and forced exercise, the combination of al-
cohol or drug consumption as a form of hazing has 
caused bodily injury to thousands of students and 
has been fatal in many instances. 
(4) Numerous students have died as a result of 
collegiate hazing. Some of the recent tragedies in-
clude Nicky Cumberland, Max Gruver, Tim Piazza, 
Dalton Debrick, Marquise Braham, and Harrison 
Kowiak.
