被欺侮

德克萨斯州立法机构在1987年颁布了一项反欺辱法. The state law provides penal sanctions in the event of a conviction of hazing.  根据这律法, individuals or organizations engaging in hazing could be subject to fines and charged with a criminal offense.

被欺侮 on the part of students, faculty or staff is strictly forbidden, whether on or off campus. Texas Woman’s University students are expected to be partners in fulfilling the mission of the University by creating and maintaining standards within student groups, teams and organizations that are conducive to personal growth and development. 如果学生团体, teams and organizations are to play an integral part in the University’s plan, they must set standards that encourage each individual to achieve his or her greatest potential. 被欺侮 is the antithesis of this goal because it results in diminishing an individual’s pride and self-esteem. The University will take disciplinary action against individuals and/or groups who are involved in hazing activities.  Such disciplinary action may be taken independently of state or local prosecutorial actions.

定义

州法律将欺辱定义为“任何故意的”, 明知或鲁莽行为, 校园内的:发生在教育机构校园内或校园外的, 独自一人或与他人共同行动, 为了宣誓而针对一个学生, 被引入, 加入到, 任职于, or maintaining membership in an organization whose members are or include students at an educational institution if the act:

5. Involves coercing the student to consume a 药物 or an 酒精饮料 or 酒 in an amount that would lead a reasonable person to believe that the student is intoxicated.

 个人欺辱罪

 如果一个人犯了欺辱罪:

• 欺辱他人
• Solicits, encourages, directs, aids, or attempts to aid another in engaging in hazing
• 故意、知情或不顾后果地允许欺辱发生

大学纪律规定

The law does not restrict the right of Texas Woman’s University to enforce its own rules against hazing, and the University will take disciplinary action for conduct that constitutes hazing regardless of whether public authorities prosecute students under the state hazing law.  

Because hazing is anathema to the culture at Texas Woman’s University, the expectations regarding student behavior and hazing exceed the expectations under state law. 鼓励学生熟悉 TWU欺辱政策.
