Unpacking common myths, this volume helps higher education and student affairs practitioners understand the implications of policy while providing best practices and practical tools for fostering safe and productive organizations on campus.

Reviews

"Critical Perspectives on Hazing in Colleges and Universities breaks the silence surrounding hazing in an array of postsecondary subcultures. This book provides essential insight into what is happening on campuses, why, and how it might be stopped before any more students are harmed."
-Kristen A. Renn, Professor of Higher, Adult, & Lifelong Education and Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies for Student Success Research, Michigan State University, USA
