Dalhousie University has suspended its men’s rugby club while it investigates a hazing complaint made by a university employee.

The Dalhousie Tigers men’s rugby club was already on probation for a separate hazing incident that took place on a team trip earlier this month. School officials said they have suspended the team’s club privileges as a result of the two hazing complaints.

“We take a zero-tolerance approach to these types of allegations,” school spokesman Brian Leadbetter told CTV Atlantic.

The Tigers will lose their funding and will not be allowed to reserve sports facilities until the school has fully investigated the allegations. Players will also be prohibited from wearing team uniforms or colours, and will no longer be insured by the school.

Dalhousie University has 60 days to complete its investigation, according to its hazing policy.

The Dalhousie Tigers field teams at the Division 1 and Division 2 levels of the Nova Scotia university rugby league. Their Division 1 team was in first place and undefeated through three games at the time of the suspension.

These hazing allegations are not the first to come out of Dalhousie. The school suspended its women’s varsity hockey team last year for hazing practices that came to light in January. A total of 19 players were suspended, forcing the women to cancel their season.

University officials say they discussed the school’s anti-hazing policies with executives from each sports club in March.

“Dalhousie is committed to being a safe, respectful place to learn and play,” the school said in a statement posted on its website Friday. “We expect our student-run sports clubs to adhere to their obligations in the Sport Club Handbook, and will not tolerate behaviour that humiliates, disrespects or threatens the safety of individuals in our community.”
