If your story is true, then instead of quiting you should have reported the fraternity to its HQ.

Forgive me for my bluntness, and with all due respect, but I think that's a horrible thing for people to do if it is to be your FIRST STEP...
Those type of actions should be the last on your list after
1) talking to the officers in charge -president first, then the officer in charge of scholarship.
2) talking to the Alumni board
Telling nationals is the LAST resort, because in today's age of political correctness, chapters get busted for EVERYTHING...
There should be more respect for the chapter itself...
When all else fails, then go to nationals - but that should be the Last thing...
As for initiation, the word "initiation" that I know stands for the day and ritual ceremony that enters you into the fraternity (learning the ritual/secrets/etc)...
Perhaps because the guy was a pledge, he didn't know the difference - but all things before initiation is considered "pledging."
