Gonzaga University Anti-Hazing Expectations:

Traditions provide reminders and context of Gonzaga University’s past and hopes for the future. Such rituals are to always be deeply rooted in mutual respect and dignity, and not through activities that harm or humiliate.

Hazing is inconsistent with Gonzaga’s mission as a Jesuit, humanistic University and is strictly prohibited. Review these expectations in the University’s hazing policy.

Duty to Report:

If, as a result of observations or information received in the course of employment or volunteer service, any employee, including a student employee, or volunteer the University has reasonable cause to believe that hazing has occurred, the employee or volunteer must report the incident, or cause a report to be made, to the Resolution Center for Student Conduct and Conflict. The employee or volunteer must make the report at the first opportunity to do so.

See the University’s hazing policy for more information.
