rasganço
Tradition from the University of Coimbra. Similarly to recibida, it's
not an initiation, but still a tradition. When students graduate, other
students tear their uniforms. Guys usually end up naked, and girls are
usually stripped to their bras.
Gongratulations, you're finaly torned!
The Portuguese city of Coimbra is knowned for the university and
its' traditions. In Coimbra, after you finish your studies, you can go
through a ritual called "Rasganço", in English something like “Torn”..
In this ritual your student clothes are torned in order to represent the
official ending of your student life. Girls only can be tear by girls,
and guys by guys, but everyone can watch it. They make this in the main
street of the university and they throw the pieces of fabric to the
trees an statues. Usually males end up naked, running after the guy who
was the only piece that is not torn. Girls can keep some of their
cloths, and it depends on the girl if she wants to be more or less
dressed in the end.
