Hazing Prevention Policy
Arkansas Tech University is dedicated to promoting a safe and healthy campus environment
for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Hazing activities are counterproductive
to this effort. Therefore, Arkansas Tech University has a zero tolerance policy for
the practice of hazing activities by any member of the university community. The entire
Hazing Prevention Policy that includes the institution's definition of hazing and
how to report incidents of hazing can be accessed by visiting the link below.

*The process for investigating and adjudicating reports of hazing is outlined in the
Arkansas Tech University Student Handbook.
Campus Hazing Transparency Report
In compliance with the Stop Campus Hazing Act, effective July 1, 2025, a Campus Hazing
Transparency Report will be created to summarize the incidents associated with any
Registered Student Organizations found to be in violation of the Hazing Prevention
Policy. This report will not include allegations only. In the event of a responsible
finding for hazing, the information will be posted publicly on the University website.
The first Campus Hazing Transparency Report will be released by December of 2025 and
will include data from July 1, 2025 through the date of release. After that, the Campus
Hazing Transparency Report will be released twice a year, at the conclusion of fall
and spring semesters. The report will include the following:
• The name of Registered Student Organization;
• General description of the hazing violation, including whether it involved the use
of drugs or alcohol;
• Findings of the University about the violation and if sanctions were placed on the
Registered Student Organization; and
• Dates for when the incident occurred, when the investigation was initiated, when
the finding of responsibility of the hazing violation occurred, and when the University
notified the Registered Student Organization of the finding.
