Kamkar EPD-ADM 4/27/2009 Pri 2 No Support Comments: We support this bill, which would expand the current statute prohibiting hazing. Currently the statute includes college-level student organizations, but specifically excludes athletic teams. The bill would change the statute to include athletic teams, and to expand the bill to include student organizations in secondary and elementary schools as well. In addition, the bill focuses the prohibited conduct on those activities which are more likely to be harmful to the individual's health or to require the person to commit criminal acts or acts of hazing. On the whole, we believe this bill represents a significant improvement over the current law.
