				Psychological Hazing
			 
 
			
			I wanted to start a post and get some thoughts on the "softer" side of hazing: all of the psychological things, usually that the sorority side might put across; things are usually pushed under the carpet, but should still not happen:
 - Scavenger Hunts
 - "Kidnap" Events
 -  Forced Silence
 - Restricting new members from certain areas of the chapter house (areas that do not have anything to do with ritual)
 - Intimidation tactics
 - Requiring new members to plan an event for the rest of the chapter
 
 Any thoughts.... please share. I know we all have a handle on physical hazing, but the psychological and old "traditions" that die hard.... those are a gray area that we seem to have difficulty putting our arms around.
 
 Thanks!
