Half-Naked Hazing in Broad Daylight Prompts Controversy (VIDEO)
A YouTube video that captures university students dressed in bras and underwear who trudge on their hands and knees through icy sludge while being ridiculed and used as snowball targets has prompted controversy and concern.
Posted on March 21, the video depicts engineering students at the Canada-based Ryerson University undergoing what one student in the video called a “frosh leader initiation.”
In broad daylight and under a light snow, dozens of scantily clad students of both genders crawled on the muddy, icy ground as their more seasoned peers in the program act sort of like drill instructors and taunt them to move forward on their hands and knees, the YouTube video shows.
One male peer leader even slapped a female student on the butt as she crawled forward. Meanwhile, onlookers gawked and took photos of the spectacle, the video shows.
