National Hazing Prevention Week |
At the start of this year, we introduced you to the Dean of Students team and shared updates on policies that guide how we live, learn, and thrive together at Duke. National Hazing Prevention Week is another opportunity to put those values into practice. Being an active bystander means noticing when something is not right and stepping in to help. Complete the StandUp to Hazing module to build your skills and confidence to act when it matters most.
