antihazing
Opposing brutal initiations
Antihazing describes efforts to prevent or prohibit hazing—the abusive rituals sometimes imposed on newcomers to fraternities, sports teams, military units, or other groups.
Antihazing policies, laws, and campaigns aim to eliminate practices ranging from humiliation to physical endangerment: The university strengthened its antihazing rules after a student died during a fraternity initiation.
