Lycoming College is committed to promoting a campus environment that is just, open, disciplined, and caring. This philosophy supports the educational mission of the institution and our standards for co-curricular programs that facilitate students' development. Lycoming College is opposed to any activity that involves the hazing of any member of the college community.
Hazing is defined as: any action taken or situation created as part of initiation to or continued membership in a student group or organization, which 1) produces or has the potential to produce mental or physical discomfort, harm, or stress; embarrassment; harassment; or ridicule; or 2) which violate College policy, fraternity/sorority policy, or law. This applies to behavior on or off College or organization premises. (Hazing does not include actions or situations that are incidental to officially-sanctioned and supervised College activities.)
