I know of a girl in high school who got arrested for public exposure (peeing in public while drunk... the cop allowed her to pick public exposure or underage drinking) and she spent 4 productive years in a sorority. I will bet you a dollar it never came up and wouldn't have mattered to the sorority anyway.

They won't look, there's no reason to mention it, and if it does come up and they do cut you because of it, c'est la vie. I still bet it wouldn't affect your options at EVERY house on campus even if somebody found out.
While I agree with you in theory, I also need to add this. We all know membership selections can be arbitrary and harsh, especially on competitive campuses that have to release a ton of PNMs right off the bat. Many girls have been cut for far more piddly reasons. If a decision had to be made between 2 PNMs most chapters would choose the 1 who hasn't been arrested. That doesn't mean a PNM who got caught with a fake ID is a bad person or the 1 who doesn't have a record is an angel.
