Is this still pretty much the case or are you aware of changes? My wife went to a boarding school for the last 3 years of high school (late 90's) and it was an overwhelmingly positive experience for her. [edit] I went to college at a military-style school and I recall that there was an explicit prohibition against Personal Servitude. We always wondered what happened in the past to make that a rule that everyone knew about.

In the U.K., the final change was around the turn of the millennium - it happened while I was there - we were the “lucky” ones who were brutalised but never permitted to brutalise in our turn. Actually, I am grateful for that as I find it hard enough to live with myself as it is. There’s also a profound difference in what it does to you when you start at six versus sixteen - many of the old etonians cited went through the preparatory school system, as did I.

This was in the late 1960s through late 1970s (so quite a while ago), and I don't have any more recent info.
