Would it be rude to ask them about their policies on hazing at an interest party?

I don't think it would be rude at all.
However, you're not going to get the true answer from them.
Are they really going to say "oh yes, we haze the sh!t out of our pledges"?
BUT, rumors don't really mean anything sometimes.
Case in point, a few rushes ago when I was undergrad, a house who really wanted a girl that was also rushing us told her that we haze. And no matter how many times I and others tried to reassure this girls that we did NOT, under any circumstances haze, she went to that other house.
Guess what? My house really doesn't/didn't haze. She got hazed in that house she joined.
Unless you've actually seen new reports/police logs of hazing or know someone firsthand who was hazed by a house, you're just going on hearsay and rumors.
You sound like a strong enough person to stand up for yourself and decide what's a good situation for you. Go with your heart to a house, but think with your brain once you're there.
Good luck!
