I totally agree with you. I have been through it (on both sides :) ) I enjoyed it when I was fresher and even after that as a senior. Actually, you would have noticed when we come out from home to a college hostel, there is something in ourselves that needs to be changed. It could be a different kind of attitude that will hinder your way to be a good professional. When you go through ragging, that attitude changes and you feel that there is another home away from home. Your friends, seniors and juniors they help you when you are in trouble, you will share your happy and sad moments with them. Seniors will give you gyan in first semester, later on, you will pass on the same gyan to your juniors and things continue in the same way. As far as physical torture is concerned, that is rare, because as a senior, I always helped my juniors and my seniors did the same thing to me. Most of the students come to college for studying and the work load in professional colleges is such that people hardly get time, and even if they have time, nobody will enjoy physically torturing someone. Students who try to be over smart in their first semester and run after all those things that they are not supposed to, they only get the punishment. I personally feel such people deserve it. E.g. when I was in my first semester, one of my classmate tried to take introduction of my super senior without knowing, who was is dealing with, result was obvious, nice treatment, one weak leave. He changed a lot after that, so I would say, if someone is a fresher, s/he should try to concentrate more and more on studies and the seniors will help you more than anyone else can. If you try to be over smart, you be rewarded for that also !!! The rumors of physical torture in ragging is a hype created by media. No one comes from a family where people teach you to physically torture others "without any reason".

I also have been ragged a couple of times when i was in my first year at college. It was a healthy ragging like the seniors just as asked me my details and wanted to know if i could ask a girl out. I said i couldn't and he laughed at me and let me go. Ragging should be just fine if it's not too serious. I mean it's the only way we would get to know some seniors who are in the same college and have more experience than us. They could give us some useful suggestions as to which teacher is good or which one is strict and how are the courses and so on. Some even give us their course materials. Cheers!
