WOW!! I'm confused.

I think that our moderator wanted to talk about risk management in this thread and get away from hazing a little. There are lots of other hazing threads going. Or did I read the first post incorrectly?

And they're not the same. At least not always.

Hazing, as I understand it, isn't necessarily a risk managment issue -- but it can be.

Risk managment doesn't necessarily have to result from hazing -- but it might.

I think hazing is generally more of a "values" issue than risk management.

I don't sprinkle gasoline on the chapter room floor. That's a risk management issue. But it isn't a value. I'd call it common sense.

If I decide to open the door for my wife (with all due respect to liberated women, including her), that's a value. But it's not a risk management issue.

I go to church often. That's a value.

I don't work on my roof drunk. That's risk management.

Sometimes the two lines may converge, but they are not the same, per se.

Both values and common sense are important and should be taught starting at a very early age and the education should continue indefinitely.

Respectfully,
DeltAlum
