Crap like this didn't happen at my uni, as far as I'm aware, but then again I did go to a tin pot uni. You wouldn't catch me doing something I didn't want to be 'accepted', I suppose my football team did have some heavy nights but no one was forced or pressured into doing anything. Anyone got any stories? Should they be discouraged or actively banned?

Horrible.

I dunno, as I avoid sports like the plague - but I do know a few people in freshers' week at my college who came back to college in ambulances.

They were not popular with the dean.

Banned.

It is a little bit ironic, that some of these people feel the need to do this stuff because they don't want to be labelled a 'wuss' as the person in the article put it.

Here's my advice to any young students who get put in this predicament:

Most students are wimps, especially the older ones who think they can bark orders at you. They're just on a power trip. If one of these nerds tries to order you to down beer or eat sandwiches filled with faeces, you get in his face and tell him to &^% off! If that fails, then just bottle the prick. Smash his face in so badly that he won't be reading a text book for 3 months. These dweebs need to be destroyed, and it wont happen till people stand up to them. Thank me later.
