MINNEAPOLIS — President Biden signed the Stop Campus Hazing Act into law earlier this week — a piece of legislation that will combat a serious and sometimes deadly issue on college campuses. The bipartisan bill was first introduced by U.S. Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana in September with the aim of forcing colleges and universities to disclose how many hazing incidents happen on their campus each year. The bill will also increase transparency by providing better information about hazing incidents at student organizations. "When parents send their kids away to college, they expect they will get a good education and make new friends. They don't expect them to be harassed and hazed," said Klobuchar. "Unfortunately, hazing is a dangerous—and at times deadly—reality that students are confronted with. After years of effort from parents, students, advocates and lawmakers, our bipartisan legislation to improve hazing prevention efforts on college campuses has now been signed into law." In 2021, Minnesota student Danny Santulli became a victim of hazing after deciding to join the fraternity Phi Gamma Delta. According to a lawsuit filed after the incident, Santulli was forced to drink an entire bottle of vodka which resulted in a coma. Santulli woke up from his coma, but as a result of the hazing he is unable to walk, talk or see. Santulli's parents, Mary Pat and Tom Santulli, have been advocates of better hazing legislation since. "If my wife or I had known of the many sanctions that were against the fraternity that Danny was pledging, we would have never allowed him to pledge that fraternity. Parents and incoming students have the right to know the background of any organization they are going to join," said Tom and Mary Pat Santulli. Note: The video above first aired in Dec. 26.

Ms Murray said she made the decision to start going to the gym almost two decades ago while living in Western Australia. "I knew someone who went to the gym and she was ," Ms Murray said. "I was so pleased because everyone at the gym was enjoying it and it kept them happy. "And that's the main thing isn't it? Happiness?" After moving to Tasmania eight months ago, Ms Murray started attending the Park Grove's gym Living Longer Living Stronger class, which is designed to inspire the older generation to keep strong and fit. Although she is unable to stand up on her own, the 102-year-old does all the exercises while sitting in her walker. She said the class helps her stay social and active. "I just have a chat and a giggle with the other people," Ms Murray said. "They're just happy people and they make me feel happy." Ms Murray's love for the gym is also paired with her other life pleasure; champagne. She has a glass before bed every night, and is famous among her friends and family for making boozy chocolate and cakes. Ninty-three-year-old Graeme Wheeler only stepped foot in the gym for the first time five years ago. He also attends the living longer class. Mr Wheeler, who still lives independently and prides himself on his vegetable garden, said he joined the classes after a failed double knee replacement that left him unable to bend his legs. "I kept falling over and broke a wrist one time so I was recommended to do balance exercises," Mr Wheeler said "At my age, I don't want to have any more falls." Mr Wheeler, who celebrated his 155 day of exercise last month, said going to the gym has helped his mind, motivation, balance and physical health. "They tell me if you don't use it, you lose it," he said. "The classes have activated my mind more and I have to keep my eye on where my feet are at all times." For Mr Wheeler, who spent his working life as a carpenter, he said the secret to a long life is to keep moving. "The only thing I can say is be active, don't sit around watching TV all day," he said.
