The way it works in my chapter (which I think we all can figure out is the one at issue here) is that if you don't make grades you are considered a "Diamond Pledge". This means that you are not intitiated that quarter and you are carried over to the next quarter to see if you make grades and can be initiated.
What happens when we still have pledges is that instead of everyone coming to active meeting, they have what is called "interactive" with the pledges. No ritual, just event discussion, etc. Then once everyone is initiated it goes back to just "active" meeting for the remainder of the year. Interactive is VERY time consuming because you basically have 2 meetings a night.
The situation here, according to the post above, was that she did not make grades for 2 quarters. I can understand why some girls would be annoyed that chapter meeting was doubled in length every week for an entire year because of one person. It may seem catty, but people have limited time.
HOWEVER, I don't think she was asked to leave entirely for that reason. She said she could not attend meetings because of work AND WAS CAUGHT DRINKING AT FORMAL.

Thanks so much for clearing it up for me! Makes so much more sense now.
