In no way have I ever, ever, condoned hazing - as it should be defined.
I have condoned, and celebrated, some activities that according to NPC definitions, could be defined as hazing. But since authorities at all levels have chosen to limit some activities of a character-building nature on the off chance they might offend, they've lost a great opportunity to teach the difference.
It's like banning the use of an additive because it may cause health concerns in some - rather than identifying the risk and allowing people to live with their own choices.
