FWIW, I don't think it's OK for the women at carnation's old school to dump the local and pledge a national either. Personally, I'd be very wary of taking someone who is from a group (local, national, regional, professional or what have you) with a reputation of hazing, especially if she was an older member. AAG put across the only reasonable scenario I can think of, quite frankly - I was pledging, didn't know what I was getting into, and once I knew I got the eff out.
If freshmen hear the only reason XYZ and ABC think DEF sucks is because they took a girl like the OP, they might not give a shit. And on some campuses, it truly might not be that big of a deal, most especially if something similar has happened before. Basically, it may or may not be an issue, but there's no ONE answer since campus cultures can be so extremely different.
