How to survive initiation into students

Yesterday's schoolchildren, crossing the threshold of an educational institution, fall into a special brotherhood. But the entrance there is open only to those who with honor withstood the dedication to the students. What it is? How does it happen? Who conducts it and how to prepare for the upcoming event?

Naive freshmen often believe that the speech of the rector and dean, who say the words "Well, you are accepted into our big happy family" or something like that - is a dedication to the students. No matter how! The main "dedication" is prepared by undergraduates with fiction and not without podkovyrok. What are at least false signs on the doors that make new students run around the corridors back and forth or go from the body to the corps in search of their audience.

Why wait?

The initiation script usually includes a concert, a contest program and a disco. Competitions are the main component of the program of the day.

Fate of the Flood

This is something like fortune telling. From the crowd of newcomers choose one guy and one girl. The girl is put on one of the three chairs, the remaining ones are placed a book and a glass of beer, under which a formal cap is fixed. The guy is blindfolded, untwisted to the applause of the gathered and sent to determine the fate of the stream. Good comrades suggest where to go to the main character, and all indicate a different direction. Chairs change their location. The room is full of confusion. As a result, a young student must still find one of the chairs. If it is a chair with a book - it means that new freshmen will study hard, not being distracted by anything. Beer represents a stormy student's life full of entertainments, and a cap under a mug hints at the result of such pastime. The girl is an active private life, which also distracts from her studies. When the ritual is completed, a student can act as a facilitator, and a guy with a swaddled doll on his hands is put on the chair, which means a symbolic "I do not want to learn, but I want to get married".

Granite Science

This competition has a deeply symbolic meaning, and its passing is not a very pleasant thing. But what a pleasure you will experience, looking at those who are still ahead. What is this "all"? Dedication to freshmen occurs through the victory over the walnut (for example), which must be bitten with teeth without the use of additional devices. And as a bonus, caring senior students will offer you a glass with salted and peppered tea or biscuits, generously sprinkled with mustard. Who will eat and drink and will not spit?

Colorful Fun

Several people from among the undergraders fill water pistols or ordinary plastic bottles with leaky paint caps and hunt freshmen in order to splash them as much as possible. The paint can be either black (the darkness in the minds that the light will disperse), and the white (the color of the uncomplicated and immaculate mind), as well as other colors, under which there is a more or less logical justification.

What to do?

The main problem of yesterday's "Abitur" is the solution of the question: "How to survive the initiation in the students?". There are several answers.

1. Collect the maximum information: look for this topic at youth forums, ask familiar undergraduates or teachers, listen to the conversations of those who went through the "dedication" a year ago. Surely this topic is discussed in the corridors, show all your attention, and useful information will find you.

2. Dress so that it is not a pity to throw out your clothes. Okay else, if a water bomb lands on the head, and if the rain spills out of the paint? Leave expensive phones and tablets at home, put on glasses easier.

3. Refer to what is happening as entertainment. No need to take offense and calculate the damage, after all, no one wants you evil, everyone wants only to entertain and entertain the unskilled first-year students. Tests, including dedication to students, are always a test of character, and as a result, you will either have many friends or, on the contrary, most classmates will avoid you. Remember - an adequate reaction to jokes and jokes - a chance to prove yourself on a profitable side.

4. A rare dedication to students passes without alcohol consumption. If you do not drink, this will undoubtedly set you apart from the general student body, and many will want to test the fortress of such a position. So, if you respond to the offer to "give up" the refusal, then argue your position and do not hand it over, so as not to look like a "lop", which simply stuffs its price. With such people no one wants to communicate later, but with self-confident, able to defend their own opinion, many like to be friends.

5. Motion in your head, remember everything that happens during the "dedication", because in a few years you have to do the same in relation to new entrants.
