Introduction Brian's Story
From the day he started high school, sixteen-year-old Brian had dreamed of making the football team. It was one of the top squads in the state and had just made the playoffs. Now Brian's dream had come true. He'd been named backup quarterback. And all he wanted was to make some winning plays to help his new teammates.
Unfortunately, that's not all his teammates wanted of him. One night, ten of them jumped Brian in a shower They dragged him, kicking and screaming, to a nearby towel rack. Then, stretching two-inch-wide tape tight across his bare skin, they hung him up to dry.

Brian took his case to the county school board. They took action, canceling the team's trip to the playoffs.
Suddenly Brian was the most hated student in school. "He should have taken it like a man," fellow students said, "not gone squealing to the school board." Now, when Brian walks down the hall, few students talk to him. Instead, they punch him hard in the back as he goes by.
What happened to Brian was an act of hazing. That's the word used when a group makes someone go through a painful or embarrassing ordeal, often as a test of how much they want to join that group, or as a "welcome" when they do. It's a practice that can turn upside down normal ideas of what is right and wrong, lawful and unlawful. Brian's story shows how much that is the case.
The law says that dragging a person off and holding him by force is
