Hazing Prevention and Education

Introduction to Collin's Law

Ohio’s Senate Bill 126, also referred to as Collin’s Law in honor of Collin Wiant, an 18-year-old man who died in a hazing incident in 2018. The bill requires each public and private institution of higher education in Ohio to adopt an anti-hazing policy and publish it on its website. The policy must include rules prohibiting hazing; a method to enforce the policy; and penalties for such behavior, including fines, the withholding of a diploma or transcript, revocation of permission for an organization to operate on campus, probation, suspension, dismissal, and expulsion.

College Statement on Hazing

Tri-C believes hazing has no place in higher education and encourages all members of our community to report any instances of hazing they witness, have knowledge of, or suspect to law enforcement and to the College’s Office of Student Affairs. Tri-C prohibits hazing as part of its Student Code of Conduct and will investigate and respond to all reports of hazing it receives.

Hazing Reporting
