Policy on Hazing

Hazing is defined as any act whether physical, mental, emotional or psychological, which subjects another person, voluntarily or involuntarily, to anything that may abuse, mistreat, degrade, humiliate, harass, or intimidate him or her, or which may in any fashion compromise his/her inherent dignity as a person.

Hazing is inherently in conflict with the mission of Barry University and therefore will not be tolerated.  Every effort will be made to insure that students will not encounter the humility and danger of hazing (Approved - ECA 2/96).
