Hazy days of university

Hazy days of university

From Pikiran Rakyat

The practice of hazing new students entering university is counterproductive despite all of the arguments given to defend the practice.

The physical torture to which the incoming freshmen are subjected, purportedly done to test their mental resilience, may leave only a deep desire for revenge that will need channeling the next year. This will lead to a never-ending cycle of revenge.

University officials who issue permits for hazing must therefore make sure that the program is beneficial to the freshmen and also to members of the campus in general. Hazing that only benefits a small group of campus members must be prohibited.
