Also, that most hazed students were actually doing the acts their abusers asked them to do. If someone tries to leave a dangerous situation are they harmed? Or are they allowed to freely leave?
Does anyone know if University of Idaho still has problems with hazing? Do most universities have hazing problems? Should I not even rush? I am so terrified of this, so any serious information or experiences would be appreciated.
Are there any tips anyone has to look out for early signs that may foreshadow hazing that I should look for before I am in a dangerous situation?

I felt the same way before I rushed, and in retrospect, it was pretty rediculous! Although I don't go to your school, I don't think hazing happens much anymore. In the event that anything DOES happen, you can always just walk away. Don't let fear hold you back!
