Reporting incidents on your campus
state laws on hazing:
If you want to report a bullying or hazing incident which has already occurred or that is scheduled to occur in the future - and no one is in immediate danger - please contact your campus security office. Every school, college, or university has administrative recourse against
people who victimize students, and so does all national organizations and athletic departments. Your campus security and/or administration office will be able to take your report and help you through the process of bringing the issue to the attention of the proper authorities.
Currently, 44 states have anti-hazing laws. That means it's a misdemeanor or felony to commit hazing, therefore any known incident should be reported to law enforcement. The states without laws are Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, New Mexico, South Dakota and Wyoming.

Greek anti-hazing hotline
There is a Greek Anti-Hazing Hotline that accepts calls 24 hours a day: 1-888-NOT-HAZE (1-888-668-4293). The Hotline provides an anonymous telephone line for anyone to report a suspected or recent hazing incident.
The calls are automatically saved as audio files that are then transmitted by e-mail to the headquarters of the fraternity or sorority named in the report.
The hotline was established in 2007 and is currently sponsored by 46 national and international Greek organizations. To learn more about the hotline, please visit: http://fraternallaw.com/contact/anti-hazing-hotline/
