Description
Institutions of higher learning are generally perceived as communities that promote mutual respect and concern for one another. Most students and their parents expect their chosen campus to be safe, secure, and protected. But the fact is that bullying, hazing, and other forms of interpersonal violence exist on campuses across the country. In response to this issue, many schools have instituted policies and programs to deal with the moral, legal, and emotional aspects of campus violence. It’s important for faculty, staff, and students to understand the implications of bullying and hazing, and know how to access the support resources available to them on campus. In this course, learners will become familiar with the characteristics of bullying and hazing, the appropriate paths of response to incidents of power-based interpersonal violence, and best practices for preventing, recognizing, and responding to incidents of bullying and hazing on campus.
