Sam Martinez

1.5 million high school students in the U.S. experience hazing every year. 47% of college students have already experienced hazing before their freshman year. 55% of college students involved in fraternities, sororities, teams, and other student organizations experienced hazing - but only 1 in 10 labeled it as hazing.

This is the case of Sam Martinez.
