Melbourne Central Catholic will not tolerate any situation that can purposely cause physical pain, ridicule, mental anguish, embarrassment, or harassment to any individuals (i.e. MCC students, individuals associated with MCC, or any other individuals).

The following actions and activities are considered acts of hazing. This list is intended to be representative of the types of activities that will not be tolerated. It is not inclusive of all activities that could constitute hazing.

  1. Physical abuse of any kind
  2. Actions that put the health and safety of the individual or any property in danger.
  3. Pressuring an individual to participate in any activity that is considered lewd, profane, perverse, immoral, or illegal.
  4. Performing or pressuring others to perform pranks such as stealing or harassment.
  5. Morally degrading or humiliating behavior or activities.
  6. Any form of initiation where humiliating and degrading behavior would take place.
  7. Any behavior that could be construed as racially or sexually insensitive or offensive.
  8. Putting others under any kind of cruel or unusual psychological conditions.

I acknowledge that I am aware that hazing will not be tolerated at Melbourne Central Catholic High School. If I have any involvement in activities that are constituted to be hazing, I am subject to disciplinary actions.
