The express or implied consent of the victim will not be a defense. Apathy or acquiescence in the presence of hazing are not neutral acts; they are violations of this regulation. Hazing is forbidden by the policies of the University, by State law, and by each organization recognized by Lawrence Technological University. If you or someone you know have had an experience with hazing and you want to tell someone, you can contact the Director of Student Life, Marissa Gonzalez, mgonzale1@ltu.edu.
