When Hazing Turns to Harm: A Comprehensive Guide for City of West University Place Families and Texas University Students The call comes late at night from a worried parent in City of West University Place. Their child, a bright student at a Texas university, has just confessed to being part of a fraternity or sorority initiation event that went horribly wrong.

Your child, home for the weekend from Texas A&M, or perhaps a student at the University of Houston, seems distant, agitated.
