Fraternity's Anti-Hazing and Anti-Pledging Policy

 

 

"No chapter of Phi Beta Sigma shall indulge in any physical

abuse or undignified treatment (hazing) of its members or

prospective members. Hazing is defined as: any action

taken or situation created intentionally or unintentionally, 

whether on or off Fraternity premises, to produce mental or physical discomfort,

embarrassment,  harassment, or ridicule. Such activities and situations include, but are 

not limited to:  paddling in any form; creation of excessive fatigue; physical and

psychological shocks; quests, treasure hunts, scavenger hunts, road trips or any other

activities carried  outside the confines of the campus or chapter house; wearing publicly

apparel which is conspicuous and not normally in good taste; engaging in any public

stunts and buffoonery; morally degrading or humiliating games and activities; late work

sessions (past 12 Midnight) which interfere with scholastic activity; and any other

activities which are not consistent with Fraternal Law, Ritual, or Policy or with 

Regulations and Policies of the educational institution. Hazing is forbidden by the

Fraternity's Constitution and by public laws of the various states."
