Help us reach as many W&M community members as possible to take The Hazing Prevention Pledge:
I PLEDGE: to prevent hazing before it occurs, stop hazing when I see it happening, report it when I know it has transpired, and help empower others to do the same in order to make W&M a home without hazing.

I JOIN OTHERS TO:

Recognize the harm that hazing can cause both physically and emotionally
Condemn the act of hazing on all levels – including acts that demean, harass, and cause emotional harm
Admonish those who haze and those who enable hazing through their silence, and;
Be an advocate for the prevention of hazing.
