FAMU Hazing Prevention Week

September 25th, 2012 by flanews

Efforts continue at FAMU to inform students about the dangers of hazing.

The school has dedicated this week to hazing prevention. Students are learning about the campus penalties for hazing, the legal penalties and the health consequences. Senior Gary McLemore says the awareness efforts are working.

“It was really on the hush, hush but now since it has been brought up, people are actually more aware about it and more intrigued and want to know more about the hazing process and what we can do to stop it,” said McLemore.

And of course the secret practice of hazing at FAMU burst onto the national scene last November. That’s when Drum Major Robert Champion died after a ritual beating called Crossing Bus C. Champion’s parents are suing the school.
