Campus Hazing Transparency Report
Our Commitment to Student Safety
Pacific Union College (PUC) is committed to providing a safe, respectful, and Christ-centered learning environment. Hazing is inconsistent with PUC’s mission and with applicable federal and state law. Hazing by individuals and student organizations is prohibited in all forms, both on and off campus.
As part of our commitment to transparency, accountability, and student well-being, the College maintains this Campus Hazing Transparency Report (CHTR) — a public record of hazing reports and outcomes as required by federal law.

This page is updated regularly to ensure that our community remains informed and empowered.
What Counts as Hazing?
Hazing includes any act—on or off campus, in person or online—that:
- Endangers a student’s mental, physical, or spiritual well-being
- Humiliates, coerces, or degrades a student
- Is used as a condition for joining, continuing membership in, or participating in any group, club, team, ministry, or organization
Consent is never a defense to hazing.
For the full policy, see our Anti-Hazing Policy.
