The Academy must define and prohibit hazing and set punishments, subject to the Secretary’s approval. A cadet facing possible dismissal may request a general court-martial, and a cadet dismissed for hazing faces later appointment limits.

(a) Subject to the Secretary of the Army’s approval, the Superintendent must issue regulations that—(1) define hazing; (2) are designed to prevent it; and (3) set dismissal, suspension, or another adequate punishment for violations. (b) If a cadet is charged with violating such a regulation and dismissal is or may be the penalty, the cadet may request a general court-martial in writing. The cadet may not be dismissed for that offense except under that court’s sentence. (c) A cadet dismissed for hazing may not be reappointed to the Corps of Cadets and may not be appointed a commissioned officer in a Regular Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, or Space Force component until two years after the cadet’s class graduates.
