Introduced

Summary

This resolution would designate the week of September 21–25, 2026 as _National Hazing Awareness Week_ to spotlight and reduce dangerous initiation practices. It defines hazing as intentional or reckless acts during initiation that create a risk of physical or psychological harm. The text notes that 55 percent of college students involved in extracurricular groups report experiencing hazing and lists multiple deaths to illustrate the harm. It cites the Stop Campus Hazing Act, which requires schools to report hazing, provide prevention education, and publish hazing findings, and it urges broad prevention education and a sustained commitment beyond a single week.
