S7 E5: The Negative Impact of Hazing

In this episode, we are hoping to shine a light on the topic of hazing with an expert on the topic, University of Maine researcher and professor, Dr. Elizabeth Allan. In this very nuanced discussion, we aim to bring the experience of hazing to the surface. We will discuss the nature of hazing, the historical context of hazing, psychological factors that contribute to hazing and being hazed, consequences of hazing, and the way in which colleges and individuals can address hazing on their campus.

Dr. Elizabeth Allan is professor of higher education at the University of Maine College of Education and Human Development, where she also directs the Hazing Prevention Research Lab. In addition, she is the founder and principal of StopHazing (StopHazing.org), a research group working on developing evidence-based, research-to-practice hazing prevention programs and initiatives. Allan’s research focuses on campus cultures and climates, including studies on classroom teaching, campus diversity and equity in addition to student hazing and its prevention. She is the author of two books, co-editor of a third, and has authored or co-authored more than 40 research-based articles and book chapters.

Be curious. Be Open. Be well.
