University Anti-Hazing Policy
Hazing in any form is forbidden by any student(s) or organization(s) affiliated with Grambling State University. The following

produce mental or physical discomfort, or embarrassment, harassment, or ridicule. Such activities and situations include paddling in
any form, creation of excessive fatigue, physical and psychological shocks, coercion resulting in menial tasks being performed,
personal money being expended on non-permissible essential pledge/intake activities, wearing apparel which is conspicuous and not
in good taste, engaging in public stunts, morally degrading or humiliating games and activities, having work sessions which interfere
with scholastic activities, using drugs and/or alcoholic beverages, and any other activities which are not consistent with fraternal law,
rituals or policies from respective state, regional, or the regulations and policies of this educational institution.” (GSU Student
Handbook, p.60-61)
Regarding any pledging or membership intake process, participation in the activities must not be a mandatory requirement.
Additionally, organizations cannot require physical examinations or any other requisites that are not sanctioned by the national body
and the institution.

GPA; some Greek organizations have higher GPA standards. (GSU Pan Hellenic Council Constitution) (GSU Student Organization
