Stop Hate On Columbia's Campus or SHOCC is an adhoc group established in response to the Ruggles vandalization incident.

In Spring 2006, SHOCC initiated a series of protests, issuing a series of demands to the administration to establish "safe spaces", implement changes to the Core Curriculum, and require students to undergo "anti-oppression training". The administration partially agreed to some of the demands, including the implementation of "diversity training" as part of NSOP, the hiring of an LGBTQ advisor and the move of LGBTQ groups to the Office of Multicultural Affairs, and increase campus facilities deemed "safe space" (expanding the IRC).

SHOCC's website has not been updated since 2006 and little has been heard from the group since, if it still exists.
