OHEC metes out “4-must” policy to deal with hazing abuses



BANGKOK: -- To prevent abuses in hazing ritual against freshmen college students by their seniors, the Office of Higher Education Commission has meted out a “4-must” policy to be applicable in all universities and colleges this year.

The “4-must” policy entails the followings: all hazing-related activities must be constructive and provide a good image in the eyes of the public; all activities must take into account the rights and liberty of the freshmen and the principle of equality and no violations of individual’s right both physically and morally and ban of all liquor; all the hazing-related activities must not interfere with learning; and all the activities must come under the supervision and responsibility of the campus administrators, the teaching staff and the senior students.

OHEC secretary-general Dr Phiniti Ratananukul said that the “4-must” policy had been circulated to all universities and colleges in order that it will be strictly enforced.

He made clear that the freshmen should join the activities on voluntary basis and their parents must have the right to observe such activities. Also, senior students in charge of the activities must be screened.

Dr Phiniti said that each individual university or college must work out disciplinary measures to deal with abusive students or activities which go against basic principle of human rights.

OHEC will hold a meeting on June 23 at Asia Hotel to brief all parties concerned of the policy.
