This day in hazing: the death of Matt Carrington at Chico State Chi Tau

Here is the link.

Moderator note: I respectfully disagree with NPR writer’s calling Matt’s death an accident. His hazing resulted in a felony conviction. That conviction of Gabriel Maestreti says this was no accident. Read about Matt’s Law, his legacy, in California.
