Pillars of Prevention

Prevention Pillars

A comprehensive approach to addressing and preventing hazing is essential. Dartmouth's hazing prevention strategy is multifaceted, incorporating a variety of methods, techniques, and approaches to:

  • respond to hazing incidents
  • support those who have experienced or witnessed hazing
  • implement data-driven, theory-based preventative approaches

These three pillars work in concert to shift culture away from harm and towards health interactions at the individual, group, and institutional level.

Hazing prevention efforts promote ethical leadership modalities and a deeper awareness of what hazing is and how it can negatively impact individuals and communities.
