NEW ORLEANS - A billboard in New Orleans promoting an anti-hazing campaign is honoring Southern University student Caleb Wilson, who died in February from a hazing incident.

Wilson's family said the billboards are a public declaration of "[their] grief, [their] love and [their] fight for justice." Wilson's death has also resulted in an anti-hazing state bill called the "Caleb Wilson Act."

Omega Psi Phi is currently holding its Ninth District Meeting at the Hyatt Regency on Loyola Avenue; the billboard is placed on Poydras Street at the intersection of Loyola Avenue near the hotel.
