Normally having chosen a different fraternity OVER fraternity B & then trying to go back to B later would kill you. No one likes to be the fallback you settled for when you couldn't hack it in fraternity A.
It's just like going up to two girls at a bar and ignoring one to hit on the other. If the first one blows you off, your chances with her friend are not good no matter how much she liked you when you walked up. Now, that's actually worked out for me before, so there's always a chance.
That said, about the hazing... a lot of things classified as hazing are really no big deal. They're a risk mgmt and legal risk, but mostly not dangerous. It's just policy to keep things sane and prevent lawsuits. Some hazing though is messed up & or dangerous. Being required to touch a pledge brother in "that" way is extremely messed up. I would have told them on the spot to F-off and walked out. My whole pledge class actually had the discussion to all do that together in the case something like that ever came up - which of course it never did.
If you told me that story in an interview, I'd first of all not believe you. But, if I did believe you I wouldn't hold quitting the previous fraternity against you.
So anyway, how'd it turn out?
