What the Stop Campus Hazing Act Means for Universities and Legal Liability

New federal legislation is reshaping legal liability in higher education and creating new avenues for justice for students who have been harmed by hazing. In a recent Campus Safety Magazine interview, Davis Goldman Co-Managing Partner Aaron Davis explains how the Stop Campus Hazing Act raises the bar for universities and strengthens protections for students.

The Stop Campus Hazing Act is a long-overdue step toward protecting students from dangerous and potentially life-threatening behavior that has too often been ignored or minimized by universities. Aaron emphasizes that institutions must go beyond surface-level policies and take meaningful, proactive steps to prevent hazing before it occurs. Punishing misconduct after the fact is not enough. Students deserve to feel safe on campus, and that begins with honest education, consistent oversight, and a culture that prioritizes their well-being.
