UW Community,
I’m pleased to share the University of Washington’s inaugural three-year report on the Hazing Prevention and Response Program. This report highlights the program’s work since I joined in October 2023. Since then, we’ve built a strong foundation that has established UW as a national leader in hazing prevention and response. Our program’s success supports everyone’s mission to prevent hazing and create an environment where every student can build community, grow, and succeed, both inside and outside the classroom.
While UW has accomplished a lot over the past three years, the hard work will continue to sustain and build on our successes. The Hazing Prevention and Response Program will continue to partner with campus stakeholders to elevate it to the next level.
Please share this report with colleagues, student leaders, and your network. Thank you for your contribution and support of our Hazing Prevention and Response Program.
