Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri suggests for colleges and universities in the country to require students to disclose their affiliations with fraternities or sororities.
Zubiri made the proposal during the second and final hearing of the Senate Justice Committee on Monday on the death of Adamson University student John Matthew Salilig. According to him, the problem now is that some fraternities and organizations are not school-based.
Should it be included in a new measure, the Senate President said colleges and universities will have the grounds to suspend or expel a student involved in cases such as hazing. The Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities also agreed with Zubiri’s suggestion as it reiterated that its member schools do not recognize fraternities.
She reiterated that schools cannot be penalized if students conduct activities outside of their premises.
