A new policy from the Columbia Public Schools aims to tackle hazing incidents within school organizations by introducing clearer guidelines and stricter enforcement measures. The initiative follows reports of inappropriate behavior in some student groups, prompting administrators to review existing protocols. Schools will now require mandatory training for advisors and student leaders to identify and prevent hazing activities. Parents and students are encouraged to report concerns through a newly established hotline, signaling a proactive approach to fostering safer environments.
