This week marks the one year anniversary of the death of Penn State student Timothy Piazza and on Thursday his parents released an emotional letter, hoping to bring an end to hazing deaths.

James and Evelyn Piazza, parents of Tim Piazza, said in their letter that they have become part of a club no parent should ever have to join and moving forward they want to help prevent other parents from being in their tragic situation.

Sunday officially marks the anniversary of Tim Piazza’s death.

Within a year Penn State’s Greek life has seen major changes with recruitment policies and overall management.

There have also been extra security measures taken.

But a major piece to the Beta Theta Pi case is surveillance video footage from inside the fraternity home.

And Tim’s parents said they hope that video showing the hazing events leading up to his death can be seen by Penn State officials, including the Board of Trustees and President Eric Barron.

It’s unclear if that opportunity will be available but Barron also released an open letter to the University focusing on the Greek organizations.

He noted the efforts made to combat alcohol abuse on campus but following the suspension of 13 other Greek organizations, he agrees more work needs to be done.

Some students on campus said in order to make progress there needs to be a mutual effort.

Shjon Gillis, a Penn State Sophomore, said  “I think like, more ground set rules and more monitoring over these fraternities and sororities.”

“I think fraternities are continually going to have to be punished, get in trouble, get kicked off campus as they have been, until they decide they want to make the change,” Austin Waggoner said,

James and Evelyn also urge other parents to open up the conversation about Greek life and remind their children not to give into peer pressure.

They wrap up their letter with “It’s too late for Tim, but it’s not too late for your son or daughter.”
