Thanks for your advice, Kevin. We actually don't have any alumnae who are lawyers (darn technical science and engineering group!  ) but a dad (who is also Sigma Chi) is a lawyer who works specifically with liability and insurance. He says if we do get sued, they would subpoena the medical records and we should be fine as long as she was honest about her condition. He also said the fact that she is registered with the school's disability department should sway in our favor.
Thanks for the help, everyone.
Oh, and AOII Angel, the reason we had to remove her is because she is allowed to rent cars in the chapter's name at pretty much anytime (as long as the Department approves it). So, if she had a spasm while driving alone and wrecked the car, we'd personally have to pay for it.

Suing only determines if your chapter, or nationals, or school have to pay money. Protection from getting sued won't bring back anyone who may be killed or magically erase the pain and suffering (and possible disabilities) of anyone who may be injured as a result of her driving (or necessarily protect y'all from any subsequent lawsuits from victims' families). NOT WORTH IT!
