High School Hazing post #3
One of the chapter's in the book, High School Hazing, is dedicated to bullying and hazing in sports. Before i started the chapter, i thought back to all the teams that i had been a part of, and i thought if there was really any hazing. Of course i remembered a few instances when i found a kid "annoying" and i couldn't help but pick on him, but it was all in the purpose of team building and chemistry. Is that okay? Was it terrible of me to tease and push my teammates around? What i learned from this chapter is that even though i think its okay, i can't automatically assume it is. A lot of what the book refers to is college type hazing, with alcohol. And in my little experience, i have never been around hazing that involves alcohol. This quickly made me think about next year... when i go to college. Am i going to get hazing and be forced to drink way too much? Will i be pushed around by older teammates or other upper upperclassmen? As of right now i can only hope that none of that will happen to me.
