Stop Campus Hazing Act

Stop Campus Hazing Act 

The Stop Campus Hazing Act was signed into law late in December of 2024. The law was passed unanimously in the Senate and House before being signed by President Biden and represents a significant step in national efforts to prevent hazing by improving hazing reporting and prevention efforts on college campuses.  

CSU has always taken hazing seriously and has worked to raise awareness about hazing and prevent hazing in any form on our campus. The Stop Campus Hazing Act adds another layer to our prevention efforts by requiring the enhancement of transparency, and prioritizing prevention efforts.  

Here’s what the Stop Campus Hazing Act means for CSU: 

  • Campus Security Authorities (CSA’s) are now required to report hazing. For more information about CSA’s and the Clery Act, please visit https://clery.colostate.edu/ 
  • Universities will need to disclose incidents of hazing on campus as a crime statistic in their Annual Security Report (ASR) 
  • Universities must publish a Hazing Transparency Report and update at least twice per year.
  • Universities must provide campus-wide, research-informed hazing prevention training and awareness programs

Included in the Stop Campus Hazing Act is a timeline for implementation. Here are some important dates to know: 

  • Beginning January 1, 2025, Universities began to collect hazing statistics.
  • In June 2025, we updated our Hazing Policy to align with the law’s definitions. You can also visit the Student Resolution Center website to view the Conduct Code and the Hazing Policy for students.
  • In December 2025, we published our first Campus Hazing Transparency Report which summarized reported hazing incidents, alleged violations, description of findings, and sanctions imposed if applicable – Our Campus Hazing Transparency Report has been updated at least twice per year beginning in December 2025.

There are several ways to report hazing at CSU. If you or someone you know has experienced hazing, we encourage you to submit a report through the Student Resolution Center Incident Reporting Form or you can submit a report anonymously via CSU’s End Hazing reporting form.
