Since the act of "hazing" can, and usually does, take many forms (i.e.: physical duress, mental duress, physical assault, etc.) there is no way to codify all possible permutations of an event described as "hazing."
However - the specific act used during a hazing process CAN be considered a criminal offense, (e.g.: assault, etc). and it is those, more specific, offenses with which the perpetrator's of the hazing can be charged. Individual offenses may each have its own statute-specified punishment.
