Please elaborate on HOW you broke the tank. I know that you will have to rely on what others told you that you did that night. But there does seem to me to be a difference between stupidly sitting/leaning on the tank (solo - not with a hook-up) and something like out-of-control sledgehammering of the tank. That is, did they see a side of you that was really frightening - more than puking and knocking off the tank top?

I'm not saying that most people are surprised. But, reading people in this thread say "haha...freshmen" actually raises an eyebrow. LOL. Anyway, assuming we only know half the real story in this thread, I think that chapter's response makes sense and wasn't extreme.

Each to his own, I guess. I didn't drink at all in high school (literally...my first drink was given to me well into my first semester of college, too despite my friends in college being pretty crazy) and my friends weren't partiers, but I knew what the "popular" crowd was up to on the weekends. I guess breaking the toilet wouldn't have been news to me as I heard stories like this frequently in high school both from my classmates and my friends from surrounding high schools. So despite being very goody-two-shoes when I first came to college I wasn't fazed by this sort of thing.
Generally when an active or new member had a public, notorious night there were repercussions, but not expulsion (and from witnessing shenanigans from friends in other sororities, that was what the other chapters did as well...I know very, very few people that were kicked out but plenty that got sick/had to be taken home/etc.). Expulsion IMO would have been reserved for the girl that got out of control every time she drank and refused to lay off the booze. In other words, one big hot mess. Of the girls I know that have been expelled from chapters on campus it usually came down to finance, more than one arrest (the first one being something small, like an MIP...I'm sure something more serious wouldn't warrant two strikes), perpetual public drug use, unabashed and perpetual sluttiness/drunkness/stoned-ness.
I understand there are many reasons the chapter could have had to do this...previous trouble for alcohol, already in trouble for something else, new chapter still getting on its feet. I'm just saying on the off chance he didn't leave one of these reasons out...it's much.

I don't think it's much. And why it may not be much for some chapters was my point.

I'm sorry you feel like my assessment of your "Holier Than Thou" attitude was incorrect, but I stand by it nonetheless. Also, the having to have the last word thing with you is getting really old.
