That's the problem I have with people using hot-button words/phrases like hazing, binge drinking, date rape, racism, add your own. Everyone has a different definition and is convinced theirs is the right one.
Starting to sound???

That's been pretty much the problem with this whole general topic.

There is a body of activities that most people accept as hazing. Most organizations have quantified these in their policies.

But it seems that many people/orgs seem to have gone too far in including a lot of activities as 'hazing'. Its what constitues this 'gray area' that seems to generate the most discussion.
