The Hazing Prevention Network and Penn State's Piazza Center has been actively exploring strategies to combat hazing in order to identify the most effective policies and programs. Given that hazing poses a significant risk to the safety and well-being of students and the broader community, it is imperative for college campuses to take the lead in eradicating hazing culture.
To establish a robust framework for hazing prevention, our focus will be on three key areas:
- Recognizing Early Warning Signs
- Utilizing Comprehensive Data
- Strengthening Prevention Programs
This dynamic discussion will showcase innovative solutions and successful case studies designed to reshape student attitudes and behaviors regarding hazing.
Presenters:
- Todd Shelton, Executive Director, Hazing Prevention Network
- Stevan Veldkamp, Ed.D., Executive Director, Penn State's Piazza Center
- Emily Perlow, Ph.D., AVP and Dean of Students, Worcester Polytechnic Institute
