What were the indignities that the new girls were subjected to in the school?

Dear Student,

Ever since the narrator was taken from her mother, she had to suffer extreme indignities. The narrator explicitly notes a harrowing experience. Earlier her mother had told her that only unskilled warriors who were captured had their hair shingled by the enemy. It was the ultimate shame of being defeated. After experiencing a cultural shock during lunch, when Judewin informed the narrator that the paleface woman would cut her long hair, the narrator was horrified and declared that she will not submit, rather she will struggle at first. For that purpose, she hid herself under the bed. After a long search, she was discovered. She was dragged out and carried downstairs whereupon she was tied fast in a chair. And then her hair was cut. She felt that she had been tossed about in the air like a wooden puppet.
 
Regards.
