Hazing

represented order and society, the rest of the children would shun him. The same occurs within the book, but once again, the effect of it is hindered by the loss of visual interpretation. In addition, in the Carnegie Mellon Production, the apparent hazing of Piggy in the introduction let us know that he would be a pushover. Since this part was omitted from Golding’s novel, one would have to reach this conclusion themselves. Simply, the play allowed for a wider basis of interpretation because of…

included a queen and other royal figures; animals, demons, and a jury. Later versions would include King Rex, a royal doctor scribe, and six barbers; two devils, half a dozen bears, and a slew of policemen. During Darwin’s time, the ritual was a hazing of sorts. Griffins were forced to endure being baptized in the ocean, shaving, and all sorts of unpleasant ordeals undertaken by experienced shipmates to test the mettle of the new recruits. Darwin’s ceremony took place on February 17, 1832…

Hazing techniques that were developed to reduce the habituation of coyotes to humans may also be applied to wolves. By educating the public of hazing techniques we can reduce fear they may have of interactions with wolves and what they could do if they encounter a wolf in the wild. Through scientific studies we can find what…

I have been impressed with the readings for this class. When it comes to incivility, it is interesting to see that even though it has been published in a book and articles have been written, there are still those who do not understand the magnitude of this issue in higher education or in the general public. I agree with Twale and DeLuca, when they state that incivility has behaviors that are indicative of bullying (Twale & DeLuca, 2008). When co-workers show intolerance or disrespect toward…

My swim team has an honored tradition of shaving their heads the night before the district swim meet. Districts is by far the biggest meet of the year where all swimmers attempt to break personal records and qualify for state. This shaving of the heads promises a possible time drop of maybe one tenth of a second and also builds a sense of team unity. In 2013, my freshman year of high school, I refused to partake in this sacred ritual. Throughout the season, I knew that the entire team expected…

Colonial colleges Higher education was largely oriented toward training men as ministers before 1800. Doctors and lawyers were trained in local apprentice systems. Religious denominations established most early colleges in order to train ministers. New England had a long emphasis on literacy in order that individuals could read the Bible. Harvard College was founded by the colonial legislature in 1636, and named after an early benefactor. Most of the funding came from the colony, but the college…

governed over those younger to them. Discipline at The Citadel was a concept that many believed the cadets needed in order to adhere to their ideal character. However, with the school giving power to the students, it got out of control. Acts of hazing were common and were unreported to officials. “[Michael Lake] had undergone weeks of bruising encounters with upperclassmen encounters that included being knocked down with a rifle butt and beaten in the dark by a pack of cadets,” (Faludi 80).…

Having a transgender friend is amazing, I have one friend and I see him as he sees himself. I was always interested in transgender because I heard about it all over the news, communities and families. The news always showed how one transgender youth always being bullied, hazed or even discriminate. Why can't they show that transgender is just as human as nontransgender people? Media play a huge role if they expect transgender people, who knows the social norm might change toward them. Not only…

executive” (75). Learning at The Citadel is not about real knowledge, it is about being a cog in a larger system. Before one can be a cadet at The Citadel, one has to stop caring about oneself and devote your life to the group. With all the drills, hazing, and abusive traditions these cadets have to do, they slowly start having their identities transformed. The Citadel has a stressful, negative, and damaging environment. It affects their learning because they no longer are able to think for…
