KSR – Marquette Triangle Alumni

Active & Alumni Presidents,

September 21-25 is recognized as National Hazing Prevention Week.  Triangle Fraternity has a zero tolerance for hazing and we support year-round education on this matter.  With a nationally recognized week ahead, I strongly encourage your Active & Alumni Organizations to participate in chapter-sponsored events and/or campus events.  Within the chapter, Actives and Alumni can engage in a dialogue about hazing and review Triangle Regulation 3.6, the National Risk Management Policy.  Actives and Alumni can also review the attached “Activity Guidelines” document which can lead to healthy discussion about the pitfalls of hazing.  Additionally, if your campus is hosting any Hazing Prevention Week activities I strongly encourage Actives and Alumni to attend those events.  Check with your campus fraternity/sorority advisor for details.

Finally, I remind all Active Presidents to review, sign, and submit Form AH: the Anti-Hazing Certificate.  This document must be completed at the start of each academic term (fall, winter, spring).  You can find the document linked below.

As always, please feel free to contact the staff at the National Headquarters if you need any assistance.  Thanks for your support of National Hazing Prevention Week.

Interfraternally,

Brian

Such activities may include but are not limited to the following: use of alcohol; paddling in any form; creation of excessive fatigue; physical and psychological shocks; quests, treasure hunts, scavenger hunts, road trips or any other such activities carried on outside or inside of the confines of the chapter house; wearing of public apparel which is conspicuous and not normally in good taste; engaging in public stunts and buffoonery; morally degrading or humiliating games and activities; and any other activities which are not consistent with fraternal law, ritual or policy or the regulations and policies of the educational institution.”
