Green Checks & Red Flags: Inside HazingInfo’s latest update – Who is Compliant?
We are proud to announce HazingInfo.org‘s latest update with hazing policies, transparency reports, and related information from colleges and universities nationwide!
This update is the culmination of months of intensive, behind-the-scenes work by the HazingInfo team, who manually reviewed and verified institutional data in accordance with the latest federal law (Stop Campus Hazing Act) and the deadline to post Campus Hazing Transparency Reports, making HazingInfo.org the most comprehensive centralized public resource for campus hazing-related information. This achievement significantly advances transparency, accountability, and public access to critical campus safety information.
HazingInfo.org allows users to quickly search institutions and view:
- Hazing policies
- Campus Hazing Transparency Reports
- Hazing reporting forms and reporting pathways
With this national dataset now updated (following the Dec. 23rd deadline for IHEs to update and post their reports), HazingInfo and StopHazing plan to continue releasing high-level findings, trends, and insights about how IHEs are approaching compliance and hazing prevention. Remember – SCHA compliance is the floor; comprehensive hazing prevention goes beyond that baseline and is focused on culture change.
Some key highlights from an initial analysis of updated data:
- 44% US colleges & universities with a Campus Hazing Transparency Report
- 71% Colleges with a hazing policy
- 24% US colleges with no hazing information on their websites
The public is encouraged to visit the HazingInfo announcement and explore the updated database at HazingInfo.org, search for their institution, and see what information is publicly available. This blog post shares more about how we work at HazingInfo – and what factors contribute to an institution’s profile page displaying green check marks.

This update reflects a major step forward in national hazing transparency and reinforces our organizations’ commitments to increasing visibility, accountability, and action to prevent hazing across higher education and beyond.
“True compliance isn’t just about posting a policy; it’s about ensuring students, families, and community members can easily find information, report concerns, and see how institutions respond. Transparency is a prevention strategy, not just a public relations risk.”
Dr. Elizabeth Allan, Principal of StopHazing and Professor of Higher Education at the University of Maine, where she also directs the Hazing Prevention Research Lab
