hazing

Read a random definition: deuce

A quick definition of hazing:

Hazing is when people in a group hurt or bully new members as a way to make them part of the group. This can be physical or emotional. It started a long time ago in some colleges and universities, but now it is against the law in many places. Hazing can be very dangerous and even deadly, so it is important to stop it from happening.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Hazing is when newcomers to an organization are physically or emotionally abused as a way of initiation.

In the past, hazing meant beating someone. Fraternities at Ivy League universities started hazing in the mid-19th century. However, it was considered an absurd and barbarous custom. The first death from hazing was reported at Yale in 1892.

Today, many colleges and universities have banned hazing. Some states have also passed laws against hazing, which can result in criminal penalties.

Example: A group of seniors at a high school force the freshmen to eat disgusting food, wear embarrassing costumes, and perform humiliating tasks as part of their initiation into the school's football team.

This example illustrates hazing because the freshmen are being emotionally abused and humiliated as a way of being accepted into the football team.
